The Fancy Ocellaris Clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris) is a popular choice for marine aquarium enthusiasts seeking a vibrant and hardy fish. Our specimens are tank-bred, ensuring healthier fish with better adaptation to captive conditions and reduced impact on wild populations.
These clownfish exhibit striking colour variations compared to the standard Ocellaris, making them a premium addition to your marine setup. They are suitable for a range of tank sizes and are known for their peaceful temperament, making them compatible with many other community fish.
Care and Husbandry
- Temperament: Generally peaceful but can be territorial, especially when paired or breeding.
- Diet: Omnivorous – feed a varied diet including high-quality marine pellets, frozen mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and algae-based foods.
- Minimum Tank Size: 75 litres (20 gallons) recommended to provide adequate swimming space and territory.
- Reef Safe: Yes, suitable for reef aquariums as they do not harm corals or invertebrates.
- Water Parameters: Maintain stable marine conditions with temperature 24-27°C, salinity 1.023-1.025, pH 8.1-8.4.
Compatibility and Behaviour
These clownfish thrive well in pairs or small groups if introduced simultaneously. They may show mild aggression to conspecifics or similar species but generally coexist peacefully with other reef-safe fish. Providing anemones or suitable host corals can enhance their natural behaviours, though they will readily accept alternative shelter.
Sizes Available
Available in various sizes to suit different aquarium setups, from juveniles to mature adults.
