Study on the masculinization of false clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris) using 17 a-methyltestosterone

False clownfish {Amphiprion ocellaris) is the most common marine ornamental species that is popular among hobbyist. However, the production of this species in captivity is still low. Most of the broodstocks are wild-caught and the F1 generations failed to breed in captivity. Hormone treatment...
