The Orange Storm Clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris variant) is a highly striking and prized designer marine species featuring an intense, solid neon-orange body covered in dramatic, irregular patches of stark white. This unique pattern creates a high-contrast, cow-like or marbled look, with an orange face mask around its expressive black eyes. Bred through selective color mutations, it retains the hardy, classic nature of standard ocellaris clownfish, making it an excellent, visually spectacular centerpiece for both nano tanks and large display reefs.
Tank Requirements
Minimum Tank Size: 20 gallons for a single specimen or a paired couple; its manageable size makes it perfect for nano reef systems.
Aquarium Decor: Plentiful live rock structures with small caves, arches, and low-flow zones. It will readily host in various sea anemones like Bubble Tips, though an anemone is not mandatory for its survival.
Temperature: 72°F – 78°F (22°C – 26°C).
Salinity (Specific Gravity): 1.020 – 1.025.
pH Range: 8.1 – 8.4.
Care and Feeding
Diet: Omnivorous; an exceptionally easy and enthusiastic feeder that accepts high-quality marine pellets, flake foods, frozen mysis shrimp, and enriched brine shrimp.
Reef Safe Rating: Reef safe; it is completely peaceful toward all types of small polyp stony (SPS) corals, large polyp stony (LPS) corals, and soft corals, never nipping at their tissue.
Temperament: Peaceful to semi-aggressive; it is docile toward unrelated tank mates but will become highly protective of its chosen nesting site or anemone, especially when kept as a mature, paired couple.
