Abstract:Amphiprion ocellaris, an ornamental fish collected from the wild, was cultured to mature and spawned in artificial condition. The embryonic development was observed under a microscope and it was found that the development was similar to most teleosts. The eggs belong to the telolecithal and are subject to discoidal cleavage. The incubation period was 192~216 hours at 27.0±0.5℃. The larval fish could be fed by rotifer in the second morning after hatching, and were developed into juvenile at 4~5 days after hatching and into parr at 18~20 days after hatching. The parrs could be fed by artificial food and shrimp meat at 45~50 days after hatching.
