Description

 

Amphiprion clarkii

 

Clarkii Clown (Amphiprion clarkii). Due to its adaptive nature Amphiprion clarkii is a very popular clownfish for both fish and invert set ups. Only produced in selected batches, this variety is easily kept and will live quite happily in a community environment. This fish is generally easy to keep. Maintenance: Feed all kinds of live, frozen, and flake foods. Best to feed small amounts several times a day. In a reef situation they don’t really need to be fed very often at all. Clownfishes have everything going for them as aquarium specimens. They’re hardy, behaviourally interesting, colorful, do well on all types of foods, & if you start with healthy specimens and meet their habitat requirements, they’re human-responsive and long-lived.
