Description
The Anemonefish Front View Tentacles canvas brings a yellow face forward from a darker reef setting, giving your wall an immediate point of connection. A spread fin breaks the symmetry beside the head. Choose it for a place where people pause to read, sit or look at the photographs around them.

The photograph
Cobi Hay Yacobi photographed the anemonefish in the Red Sea; the camera date records April 1, 2016. The fish faces almost directly toward the lens. Olive and turquoise tentacles surround it, while the pale head bar separates the warmer areas of the face.
The fin extends to the left and gives the portrait a broad shape beside its central subject. Follow its edge into the tentacles, then return to the face. The overlapping forms give the photograph more to explore than a simple frontal outline.
From across a room, the anemonefish provides a clear patch of yellow within the darker setting. At closer range, the boundaries between the fin and tentacles become more interesting. That combination suits a picture near a reading chair: it can be part of the room from a distance and something to examine during a break.
Meet the anemonefish
The fish is Amphiprion bicinctus, the Red Sea anemonefish. Adults live on outer reefs and in lagoons. Their host anemones include the bubble-tip anemone, Entacmaea quadricolor, as listed in FishBase’s species account. This does not identify the particular anemone in the photograph.
Two pale bars cross the yellow-orange body, with dark borders around the white markings. One lies behind the head and the second farther along the body. In this near-frontal photograph, the head and spread fin dominate the view; the angle does not establish the fish’s sex or age.

The anemonefish previews place the small canvas in an ice cream shop, the medium in a classroom reading corner and the large in a seaside hotel lobby. All three settings suggest a place where people spend time rather than simply pass through. Think about where that happens in your own home or workplace.
Beside bookshelves, leave enough clear wall to keep the photograph separate from the spines and objects around it. Above a low cabinet, make sure a lamp does not cover the left fin. The full arrangement of face, fin and tentacles matters to the balance of this anemonefish view.
A single yellow object nearby can connect with the animal without repeating its color everywhere. Olive or turquoise furnishings offer quieter connections with the background. You can also leave the room neutral and let the anemonefish be the only strong color on that wall.
For a shared family space, compare the photograph from both adult and child seating positions. The near-frontal face is easy to point out, and the surrounding shapes give you more to discuss as you look together. Choose a height and size that make the whole image visible from the places people actually use.
If books and ornaments already fill the nearby shelves, give the anemonefish a separate patch of wall. That separation helps the face stand out without adding more objects to the furniture.
Choose the size for your space
Start with the place you will see the picture most often. A close viewing position and an open wall across a room call for different decisions. These sizes are listed as width followed by height:
- 12 × 8 in: $69 USD
- 30 × 20 in: $149 USD
- 36 × 24 in: $169 USD
Use a sheet of paper to mark the full rectangle on your wall. Look at it from your usual chair and the doorway, with nearby lamps and other pictures in place. This gives you a better guide to scale than comparing the artwork with a screen. Allow enough clear wall around the edges for the photograph to feel complete.
Check the preview for your selected size before ordering, since the image crop may vary slightly between options. If the space calls for another dimension, ask about a different canvas size before placing your order.
Canvas, printing and delivery
The photograph is printed on canvas stretched over an inner wooden frame, 0.75 in deep, and arrives ready to hang. A decorative outer frame is not included. The supplied presentation lets the image sit on the wall without an added border; you can arrange separate outer framing if that suits your other artwork.
Each canvas is printed to order in the USA. Printing takes about 3 business days; estimated delivery after printing is about 2–5 business days within the USA or 10–30 business days to Canada, Australia and other eligible destinations. These are estimates rather than a promised arrival date. Express shipping is not available.
Shipping is free to the USA, Canada and Australia. For other countries offered at checkout, shipping costs US$25–US$36 for the first canvas, depending on size, plus US$8 for each additional canvas. The total appears before payment. Import duties or taxes may apply outside the USA. The English shop does not ship to the EU, the EEA or the UK.
Find a companion photograph
Compare this anemonefish with the close-up beside a transparent shrimp, photographed on a different date, and the Red Sea Anemonefish Canvas Print. All show the same fish species.
The pink anemonefish from Palau is a different species. Within the fish canvas collection, compare the head angles and surrounding space before choosing a pair. A frontal portrait and a side view give each image a distinct role on the wall. The marine life identification guide offers background for looking at those differences.
Behind the camera
Cobi Hay Yacobi is a marine nature photographer whose work centers on underwater photography. He has been diving for over 20 years and has completed more than 1,000 dives in the Red Sea and around the world. Dedicated lighting, underwater cameras and patient observation shape the photographs in his collection.
He selects images from thousands of photographs, using underwater lighting to reveal the scene’s natural colors. The story behind Cobi’s underwater photography introduces his approach. This anemonefish frame brings an almost direct gaze into the collection. Its appeal is personal and visual: a recognizable face within an intricate underwater setting.
Frequently asked questions
How should I care for the canvas?
