Amphiprion percula is the Clown Anemone fish. The three white bars have strong, black outlines compared with the false Clown fish A. ocellaris which have thre plain white bars. U/W photogrpahy enables you to distinguish between similar species. The almost identical False Clown fish is A. ocellaris. It does not have the black outlines. I used f 13, 1/60 sec and took a few photos as these fish are extremely nervous and hardly ever sit still.
