Here is how to make a Clown Fish Cake:

Supplies:
First and Ten Wilton Football pan
2 qty tip #18, each on a decorator bag
1 tip #3 on a decorator bag
1 boxed cake mix, plus ingredients for cake mix
2 cups orange med. buttercream
2 cups white med. buttercream
1 cup black piping gel or thin buttercream
13" x 15" cake board covered with foil

Bake football cake following the baking instructions with the pan.
Once the cake has cooled place it on the covered cake board this will now become the fish's body. Use a little icing on the board to keep the cake for moving.
Outline on the cake board in black the top, bottom fin and the tail. Outline in black one large stripe in the middle of the body, a smaller stripe towards the back of the body and one on the tail.
Smooth the white icing in the spot for the eye. Outline the eye in black and add a black dot for the pulp.
Using tip #18 pipe stars in white to fill in the stripes.
Using tip #18 pipe orange stars to fill in the rest of the body. Pipe a line with tip #18 in orange for the fins and tail.
If needed go back over some parts of the outline in black again.
