Breeding difficulty:

Clownfish are easy to raise. Clownfish is a common ornamental fish in tropical seawater. In fact, clown fish is easy to raise in all marine fish, because clown fish has low requirements on the environment and strong adaptability, as long as the water temperature is kept at 26~27C, the pH value is 8.0~8.5, and the proportion of water is within 1.022~ 1.023. In addition, clown fish is not picky about food, whether it is fish.

Living habits:

1. Environment: Clownfish are widely distributed in tropical oceans from 25 degrees north latitude to 35 degrees south latitude, and like to inhabit coral reefs, rocky reefs or shallow lagoons, with a habitat depth of 1~55 meters, which is territorial and often lives with large anemones, sea urchins and corals.

2. Feeding habit: Clown fish is omnivorous fish. Under natural conditions, it mainly feeds on algae, copepods, planktonic crustaceans and higher plant debris. Under the condition of artificial feeding, spirulina, fish, shrimp paste and compound pellet feed can be fed.

2. Water quality: Clownfish has low environmental requirements and strong adaptability, but a good water quality environment is more conducive to the growth of Clownfish. In terms of temperature, the optimum water temperature is 26~27℃, and in terms of pH value, the optimum pH value is 8.0~8.5, and the specific gravity of water is 1.022~ 1.023.

3. Feeding: Clownfish is an omnivorous fish, which mainly feeds on algae, copepods and small crustaceans. When feeding artificially, spirulina, fish, shrimp and compound pellet feed can be fed twice a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon.
