The Flurry Clownfish is a striking color variety of Ocellaris Clownfish demonstrating a high degree of pure white with only a few black dots. Flurry Clownfish are a result of crossing a Wyoming White Clownfish with Frostbite Clownfish. Some Flurry clowns may even possess pearly eyes. The Captive-Bred Flurry Clownfish has a unique advantage over wild-harvested species. For one, the Captive-Bred Flurry Clownfish is very hardy and more accustomed to conditions found in home aquariums. Therefore, it makes an excellent choice for novices and seasoned aquarists alike. The Captive-Bred Flurry Clownfish is also easy to breed in the home aquarium. The females will be the largest of the pair and the two fish will usually stay close to each other in the aquarium. The Captive-Bred Flurry Clownfish is an egg layer and will deposit the eggs on a flat surface and defend the eggs from other tankmates. The eggs will normally hatch in 6-11 days depending on the water temperature. The fry must be reared in a separate aquarium on a diet of rotifers followed by baby brine shrimp. This Clownfish is an aggressive eater. It will accept most meaty foods and frozen herbivore preparations.
