notes
   A very hardy and attractive clownfish. Does well in most community settings with the exception of possible squabbling with closely related clownfish. Although extremely similar to and refered to as the Clarkii Clownfish, this is incorrect. Hence its name, it will defiantly associate with the Sebae Anemone(Heteractis crispa), however it will usually acclimate itself to most others available.   
overview
  
The Sebae Clownfish (Amphiprion sebae) is sometimes called a Sebae Anemonefish. It belongs to the family named Pomacentridae. Typically reaching a max size of about 6.0 inches in length, the Sebae Clownfish is generally passive in nature and hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out across the entire tank. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Amphiprion sebae should not be housed in a tank less than 30 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include plenty of hiding places.
