Scale From An Animal With
A Two Chambered Heart
(Clark's anemonefish)
Fish hearts have two types of chambers: atria and ventricles. The "atria are where blood enters the heart and ventricles pump the blood out of the heart". In fish hearts, the atrium draws in deoxygenated blood and pumps it out the ventricle. The blood then travels through the gills and pumped out to the body in what is called a "single circulation".
