Ocellaris Clownfish (False Percula Clownfish)

The Ocellaris Clownfish is one of the most iconic saltwater fish, instantly recognizable by its bright orange body and bold white bands. Hardy and relatively easy to care for, this species is often recommended as a beginner-friendly saltwater fish. They adapt well to aquariums, accept a wide variety of foods, and are reef-safe.

One of their most fascinating traits is their symbiotic relationship with anemones: the clownfish offers cleaning and food scraps, while the anemone provides shelter and protection. They are best kept in tanks of at least 30 gallons with live rock and peaceful tankmates.

👉 Care Difficulty: Easy to Moderate – A great choice for beginners, but still requires stable water conditions and consistent care.
