: breed of clownfish and that is why she (my friend) had never heard of it. She can't remember what it is called and I was hoping someone here might know
: I'd be insterested in finding out. Thanks

Howdy Jenn,
Since nobody has yet reponded to your question, figured I'd jump in with the following list of potential "M" Clowns:
Mauritian Anemonefish AMPHIPRION CHRYSOGASTER
Madagascar Anemonefish AMPHIPRION LATIFASCIATUS
McCulloch's Anemonefish AMPHIPRION MCCULLOCHI
Maldives Anemonefish AMPHIPRION NIGRIPES
Please be advised that there may be more, as common nmaes vary by region, etc., etc. Hope this helps JPL
