Other Information:	I think this species is already in, but with the wrong spelling of it's name? There is a species listed called Acanthocrhomis polynemus. Maybe not the same fish, but probably. Again, the fish I'm looking for a classification on is Acanthochromis polyacanthus, the Spiny or Orangeline Chromis, the only damsel species with direct development.

4/13/10 09:04 PM I did some looking and the only actual records I can find for a species called Acanthocrhomis polynemus point back to here which leads me to believe that the record is spelled wrong and should be Acanthochromis polyacanthus as you stated.
