Bali Aquarich Black Frostbite Clownfish
Bali Aquarich Black Frostbite Clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris)
The Bali Aquarich Black Frostbite Clownfish is a striking designer form of the Ocellaris Clownfish, prized for its bright white body coverage, irregular dark markings and bold orange face. As a captive-bred morph of Amphiprion ocellaris, it combines unusual patterning with the generally adaptable nature that has made Ocellaris clownfish one of the most popular marine aquarium species. The base species naturally occurs in shallow, calm lagoons and coral reefs of the Indo-West Pacific, where it lives in close association with host anemones.
Common Name:
Bali Aquarich Black Frostbite Clownfish. This is a designer captive-bred Ocellaris clownfish morph rather than a standard wild-type colour form.
Scientific Name (Latin):
Amphiprion ocellaris
Maximum Size:
Up to 11 cm in length.
Water Type:
Marine.
Origin / Natural Habitat:
This fish is captive-bred, but the species naturally occurs across the Indo-West Pacific and inhabits shallow, calm lagoons and coral reefs, where it lives among large sea anemones.
Water Parameters:
Temperature: 24–28°C
pH Range: 7.8–8.4
Salinity: 1.020–1.026 SG
Temperament:
Generally peaceful to semi-aggressive. Like other clownfish, it can become territorial once established, especially around its chosen area, shelter or host coral/anemone. Ocellaris clownfish are also protandrous hermaphrodites, meaning the larger dominant fish becomes female and the smaller partner remains male.
Diet:
Omnivorous / planktivorous. Offer a varied diet of mysis shrimp, enriched brineshrimp, quality marine pellets or flakes, and some algae-based foods. Captive-bred Ocellaris clownfish usually adapt readily to prepared aquarium foods.
Minimum Tank Size:
A practical recommendation is 110 litres for a pair, with more space preferred in a mixed community aquarium.
Behaviour & Activity:
This fish will usually establish a home area within the aquarium and stay fairly close to it rather than swimming constantly across the whole tank. Ocellaris clownfish form distinct monogamous pairs, lay demersal eggs attached to the substrate, and the male guards and aerates the eggs.
Reef Safe:
Reef Safe
Ocellaris clownfish are generally considered very suitable for reef aquaria and are widely regarded as reef safe. The main caution is that some individuals may adopt a coral as a substitute host if no anemone is present, which can sometimes cause mild irritation to that coral over time.
Special Requirements or Care Notes:
A host anemone is not essential for long-term success. This fish does best in a stable, mature marine aquarium with good filtration, sensible tankmates and regular feeding. One pair per aquarium is usually the safest approach unless the system is much larger and carefully planned.
Suitable for:
Beginner to Intermediate marine keepers. Captive-bred Ocellaris clownfish are widely regarded as hardy and adaptable, which makes them one of the better clownfish choices for home aquaria when basic marine husbandry is in place.
Availability:
Occasional in trade. This is an inference based on it being a specific designer captive-bred morph rather than a standard Ocellaris clownfish, alongside current retail listings for this exact Bali Aquarich line.
Captive-Bred Origin:
This fish comes from Bali Aquarich in Bali, Indonesia. Bali Aquarich states that it began breeding clownfish in 2004, renovated its facilities in 2006, has reproduced more than 30 marine species, and operates an active breeding area of more than 40,000 square metres using indoor, outdoor and closed-system facilities.
All images are a visual representation of the fish you will receive, made to be as accurate as possible. Please note that Mother Nature is a wonderful thing, and variation in patterns and colours will occur — that is part of the unique beauty of these animals.
