Amphiprion ocellaris WYOMING WHITE/FLURRY/EXTREME SNOWFLAKE 3 cm

Amphiprion is a genus of marine fish from the Pomacentridae family, known as "anemonefish" or "clownfish." Here is a general description of the Amphiprion species and information about their cultivation:

Description of Amphiprion Species:

• Appearance: Fish of the Amphiprion genus are small, brightly colored, and characterized by elongated dorsal and anal fins. Their bodies can exhibit various colors, including shades of orange, black, white, yellow, and blue. A distinguishing feature is a band of white, black, or orange that runs across their bodies and encircles their heads.
• Symbiosis with Anemones: Amphiprion fish live in symbiosis with sea anemones, seeking refuge within their protective tentacles from predators. This relationship benefits both the fish, which find shelter, and the anemones, which receive leftover food from the fish and gain additional protection against predators.

Cultivation of Amphiprion Fish in Marine Aquariums:

• Aquarium: Marine aquariums intended for the cultivation of Amphiprion fish should be properly equipped and maintained under stable conditions. The fish require space to swim and hide, so it's important to provide an adequate number of hiding spots, such as sea anemones.
• Water Parameters: Maintaining stable water parameters is crucial. The aquarium water should have a temperature ranging from 24-28°C (75-82°F) and the appropriate salinity level, usually between 1.023 and 1.025.
• Feeding: Amphiprion fish are omnivorous and active. Their diet should include a variety of food sources, such as fish flakes, frozen foods, as well as fresh or frozen small crustaceans and marine algae.
• Symbiosis with Anemones: If you are keeping Amphiprion fish with sea anemones, it's important to provide suitable conditions for both partners. Anemones require proper lighting and stable water conditions.

Cultivating Amphiprion fish in marine aquariums can be a fascinating experience, but it requires advanced knowledge and attention to proper environmental conditions. Particularly, caring for sea anemones is challenging, so it's recommended to start keeping Amphiprion fish after gaining some experience in maintaining marine aquariums.
