Tank Raised Orange Skunk Clownfish
Orange Skunk Clownfish, Amphiprion akallopisos, is commonly found in the Indian Ocean. Clownfish, also known as Anemonefish, are omnivores that will eat a wide variety of prepared and frozen foods. Brine Shrimp are a favorite treat of these amusing little fish. Clownfish have gained a high level of popularity in the saltwater hobby because of their hardiness and abundance of personality. They will form shoals in the home aquarium with the two dominant fish becoming a pair. The largest Clown is typically the terminal female, the next largest the male, and the others remain juveniles. Tank raised specimens are typically considered extremely hardy and they adapt better to the home aquarium than wild-caught specimens.
