Ocean warming impacts growth and development of clownfish larvae
![As clownfish larvae mature into juveniles, they pass through seven stages of development (only stages two to seven pictured). The clownfish raised at 31°C grew and developed quicker than those raised at 28°C, reaching each development stage in a shorter number of days.](/sites/default/files/styles/embed_lg_1x/public/2023-03/20230320-clownfish-development-timeline-edited3.jpg?itok=NWke88JQ)
