There is a vast literature on distribution, rearing conditions and
behavioural studies of clownfishes. However, descriptive
information on reproductive behaviour, early developments and
life history pathways of Amphiprion ocellaris are scarce. In this
study, 7 pairs of A. ocellaris having size 89 to 100 mm
(presumptive females) and 40 to 60 mm (presumptive males)
were developed through pair formation to generate information
on breeding and spawning behaviour, egg morphology, and
embryonic, larval, juvenile and adult developments. The
spawning was found to be year-round with reproductive cycle
of 12 to 15 days intervals and laid 300 to 1000 capsule shaped
and adhesive type eggs. The eggs were 1.5-3.0 mm in length
and 0.8-1.84 mm in width containing multiple oil globules of
varying size and were pale yellow or white for initial two days,
turned to black on 3rd to 5th day and silvery on 6th to 7th day
of incubation.
