Rare fish lovers, it’s time we brought you an update on the SEASMART-collected, Lightning Maroon Clownfish from Papua New Guinea (PNG). Forgive the water clarity – the female Maroon Clown is always “digging”. Forgive the camera work – it was shot with one hand using a Nikon D5000. Forgive the focus – it would appear that the D5000 doesn’t auto-focus when shooting videos! And finally, forgive what may very well be another risky step – at least that’s how it might appear to the uninitiated. After what feels like months (and actually probably was months), tonight I “sacked up” as they say and made a bold move.
尽管有些人坚持认为闪电栗色的小丑鱼太大而不能成为“男性”，但我将其介绍给了我亲自见过的最大的栗色小丑鱼（只要我的手，它就会是最大的）。在任何配对情况下，除了女性之外，没有什么大小的栗色小丑鱼！在第一次约会（是的，这次是在True HD中捕获的），我很高兴报告最初，似乎暂时是在正式环境中对闪电栗色的解决先生Lightning Maroon.
While this latest experiment is very promising, I still have plans to return the Lightning Maroon to its isolation box (a.k.a. “jail”) for a bit longer. The next date may very well be the last date, so I want to be sure that I can devote much more time to observation than I can over the next week or two. Remember, you can catch an这个故事的扩展版本on the Lightning Maroon Clownfish’s website,闪电项目呢我给您留下了更多的坦率视频，从他们的日期低于休息时间：
Here’s video of 2 juvenile PNG Maroon Clownfish being introduced, to show you what可以have happened on the Lightning Maroon’s first date. Thankfully, what you just saw below is what would’ve likely happened if the Lightning Maroon Clownfish was a “female”.
