چکیده
The global marine ornamental fish trade is dominated by wild collected fishes, and the contribution from hatchery production less than 10% of total. Hatchery considered to be only long-term sustainable option reduce fishing pressure on population also safeguard delicate coral reef ecosystem, which houses most species. Among hatchery-produced fishes that are being traded, clown form a dominant group, recent addition this list designer costlier other due their rare attractive color patterns. However, ambiguities about such as its (wild caught, captive bred, or genetically modified) taxonomic identity still exist among general public hobbyists, scientific reports these aspects have not yet been published, even though few aquaculture companies display photos in websites. common names for (such Platinum, Picasso, snowflake) given companies/traders solely based patterns designs body. paper describes detail through breeding, followed elucidating two easily distinguishable viz., Picasso Platinum.
