- Clownfish and
anemonefish are fishes from the subfamily Amphiprioninae in the family
Pomacentridae.
- Clownfish are
overall yellow, orange, reddish or blackish, and many show white bars or
patches.
- They are generally
highly host specific, and especially the genera Heteractis and
Stichodactyla, and the species Entacmaea quadricolor are frequent
partners.
- Clownfish belong to
a group of small, brightly colored fish called damselfish. These inshore
reef dwellers have developed a curious and potentially deadly
relationship with the sea anemone.
- There are a few very
important steps to breeding clownfish. These include setting up the
tank, choosing the broodstock, feeding, spawning, and raising the
larvae.
- An anenome is
generally not required to breed clownfish, however, it certainly makes
the task much easier in the long run. In fact clownfish have been known
to spawn on clay pots, clam shells, and even the aquarium glass in the
absence of an anenome.
- Clown Fish are
enjoying great popularity due to the movie "Finding Nemo" As always,
with aquarium Clown Fish, there is an accompanying demand for anemones.
Unfortunately, all anemones are not suited for captivity.
