[UW Photo A051] Red and Black Anemone fish

(Location: Cod Hole, Ribbon Reef 10, Great Barrier Reef, QLD, Australia)

This is Red and Black Anemone fish (Amphiprion melanopus) captured in world famous Cod Hole of Great Barrier Reef. Cod Hole is famous for its giant potato cod, but I didn’t have much chance of shooting a good photo of them.

Since wide lens gives you more range, though the fish is small, it’s best to try capturing some background that would improve the photo.  In fact, this photo gives some idea of the surrounding of the reef, though clownfishes themselves are smaller as the primary subject.
