Anemonefish, as if bedded on velvet in its magnificent red anemone. Underwater photo, dive at coral reef, Maldives. Close-Up: Maldives Anemonefish.

This underwater photograph shows an anemonefish. A fish as if it were bedded in velvet - that's how this little Nemo (Amphiprion nigripes, Maldive anemonefish) appeared to me in his anemone (Prachtanemone, Heteractis magnifica, Radianthus ritteri). The photo was taken at a coral reef in the South Male Atoll in the Maldives.
