Amphiprion ocellaris (Darwin) – Tank Bred is a striking and beloved addition to the marine aquarium. This special variety, also known as the 'Black Darwin Clownfish', stands out immediately due to its deep black color with bright white bands. Thanks to its friendly nature and robust health, this is an ideal choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists.

Unique appearance and healthy origin

The Darwin Clownfish distinguishes itself from the classic orange clownfish by its velvety black body. This color variant originated around Darwin, Australia, and is highly sought after for its elegant and calm appearance in the aquarium. Our specimens are carefully bred in captivity ('tank bred'), making them stronger, more stress-resistant, and easier to acclimate to life in your aquarium.

• Striking, deep black color with white bands

• Peaceful and social, suitable for community aquariums
• Combines well with anemones and other reef-friendly fish

Application in the marine aquarium

The Amphiprion ocellaris (Darwin) feels most at home in a well-decorated reef aquarium with plenty of hiding places. This clownfish is known for its symbiotic relationship with sea anemones, but can also be kept perfectly well without an anemone. Due to their peaceful nature, they combine excellently with other peaceful fish and invertebrates.

Quality and care

Our tank-bred Darwin Clownfish are selected for vitality and color. Due to their upbringing in a controlled environment, they are accustomed to life in an aquarium and exhibit less stress behavior than wild-caught specimens. This makes acclimatization easy and increases the chance of a successful introduction to your aquarium.

• Healthy, strong, and less susceptible to disease
• Long lifespan with proper care
• Regular water quality and varied nutrition are important
