{"product_id":"maroon-clownfish","title":"Maroon Clownfish","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Maroon Clownfish, *Premnas biaculeatus*, is a striking and popular species among marine aquarium enthusiasts. Known for its bold personality and vibrant coloration, this clownfish is a captivating addition to a home aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the wild, Maroon Clownfish are typically found in association with bubble-tip anemones (*Entacmaea quadricolor*). In the home aquarium, they may host with a variety of anemone species, or even certain corals or artificial decorations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaroon Clownfish are omnivores and will readily accept a varied diet. Offer them a mix of high-quality marine flake food, pellets, frozen foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and chopped seafood, as well as occasional offerings of marine algae or spirulina. Feeding small amounts multiple times a day is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a home aquarium, Maroon Clownfish can reach a size of up to 6 inches (15 cm). Due to their potential size and territorial nature, a minimum tank size of 30 gallons is recommended for a single specimen or a pair. Larger tanks are preferable, especially if housing them with other fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaroon Clownfish are protandrous hermaphrodites, meaning they are born male and can change to female later in life. In a pair, the larger, more dominant fish will become the female. Breeding in captivity is possible and has been achieved by experienced aquarists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile generally peaceful towards other fish that are not similar in appearance, Maroon Clownfish can be territorial, especially as they mature and if they are hosting an anemone. They may exhibit aggression towards other clownfish species or even other Maroon Clownfish unless they are a bonded pair. When introducing new fish, observe carefully for signs of aggression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Maroon Clownfish is a hardy and rewarding fish for the marine aquarium. With proper care and a suitable environment, they can provide years of enjoyment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuick Facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Amphiprion biaculeatus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Beginner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aggressive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Omnivore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reef Safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indo-Pacific\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Adult Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Tank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75 gallons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Discover Aquatics","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":53075520749857,"sku":"TT-6163-S","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":53075520782625,"sku":"TT-6163-M","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Large","offer_id":53075520815393,"sku":"TT-6163-L","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4044\/4961\/files\/Maroon-Clownfish-7.jpg?v=1784977465","url":"https:\/\/discoveraquaticsshop.com\/products\/maroon-clownfish","provider":"Discover Aquatics Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
