orange storm clownfish / a. ocellaris

All ERC clownfish are supplied and captive-bred under the strictest bio-security by Sea & Reef Aquaculture - the premier clownfish aquaculture experts. 

The Orange Storm Clownfish is a Sea & Reef signature designer Clownfish. It is the third designer clownfish in our Storm line, with the other two being the Black Storm Clownfish and the Mocha Storm Clownfish. The Orange Storm Clownfish was made available to hobbyists on December 7, 2018. The Orange Storm Clownfish is an orange and white variation of the Black Storm Clownfish. It was created by breeding our Black Storm Clownfish with our bright orange Ocellaris Clownfish through seven generations. The breeding effort took a long time, but was necesarry to completely remove the Black coloration. The result is a clownfish that shows the characteristic white pattern of the Black Storm Clownfish, but with a orange coloration instead of the deep black color of the Black Storms.

Temperament & Captive Care
The temperament and captive care requirements of the Orange Storm Clownfish is very similar to that of the regular Ocellaris clownfish. It is a relatively peaceful and hardy clownfish. They thrive in saltwater aquariums with or without an anemone present.

Feeding
Most clownfish are omnivorous feeders, meaning that they will consume a variety of different food types. In nature the diet of clownfish consists of crustaceans (such as copepods and amphipods), algae, polychaete worms, and leftovers from the anemone’s meal. Our captive bred fish are conditioned to eat a variety of aquarium diets including pellets, flake food, frozen Mysis shrimp, and frozen brine shrimp.
