Remarks: Amphiprion sebae is similar in appearance to Amphipron clarkii. Since both species are somewhat variable in colouration it is not always easy to tell them apart. However, A. clarkii usually has a third white band (on the caudal peduncle), and lacks the posterior extension of the second white band on the dorsal fin. Both these species are very popular among aquarists.
