The ORA® Captive-Bred Pink Skunk Clownfish is also called The Pink Skunk Anemonefish or False Skunk-striped Anemonefish. It has an orange-peach base color and one white stripe on the head, which starts at the nose and all the way to the back. A second white stripe that is contrasting is situated just behind the eyes. Captive-bred fish possess a distinct benefit over species that are harvested wild since they're typically robust and are more comfortable with the conditions of the aquarium at home. Thus, captive-bred fishes are an excellent choice for beginners as well as experienced aquarists. The Captive-Bred Pink Skunk is more difficult to rear and spawn than other species of clownfish in the aquarium at home, however, with a bit of effort, can be achieved by a committed marine aquarist. Females are the most massive of the pair The two species generally stay close to each other in the tank. Clownfish are egg-laying fish and deposit eggs on flat surfaces and guard the eggs against other tank mates. The eggs are usually born within 8 to 11 days, based on the temperature of the water. The fry should be raised in a separate tank with a diet consisting of rotifers, followed by brine shrimp. Post-metamorphic juveniles exhibit an intense behavior of schooling and "balling" behaviors that may persist until they reach adulthood. It is believed that the Pink Skunk Clownfish diet consists of nearly any meaty food and herbivore recipes. Approximate Purchase Size: 3/4" to 1-1/4"

Helpful Questions From Clients
Frequently Asked Questions
Is hiring a professional necessary to set up a saltwater aquarium?

As a general rule, a larger custom aquarium might require installation by a professional. However, a kit from our online fish store is relatively affordable and beginner friendly. That means you should have no problem setting it up yourself.

Which saltwater aquarium fish should you choose when starting out?

Consider a yellow tang fish. This popular saltwater aquarium fish does a great job of coexisting with other types of fish you’ll find in our online fish store.

How does a saltwater aquarium differ from a freshwater one?

Saltwater aquariums require a bit more maintenance and monitoring than freshwater tanks. Different fish require different levels of salinity, pH tolerances, and temperature requirements. They also require specialized pumps, filters, and other equipment that can handle salt. We can guide you through everything you need to know to set up a healthy, thriving reef tank.

Do fish in a saltwater aquarium swim in a school?

That depends on the species. However, if it’s a fish that swims in a school in the wild, they’ll do the same in an aquarium. Some fish that swim in schools include the green and blue chromis, cardinalfish, and dartfish, for example. When ordering from an online fish store, make sure you do your research on how specific fish species behave to ensure they’ll school (or at least coexist) with your current fish.

Is the effort required to maintain a saltwater aquarium worth it?

Yes! Many aquarists dream of owning thriving saltwater aquariums. You have a tiny piece of the ocean in your home, featuring magical and exotic fish that can only survive in saltwater.
