Misbar Sebae Clownfish

(Amphiprion sebae)

Amphiprion Clownfish should be added to a well established aquarium with plenty of rock work and swimming area. Also known as anemonefish they are hardy, reef safe and easy to care for. They are also one of the most popular marine aquarium inhabitants. Anemonefish create a symbiotic relationship with anemones. Anemonefish are dependent on anemone's for shelter and protection and provide food and cleaning services to the anemone. They can be a bit territorial over their host anemone. Females are larger than the males and are protandrous hermaphrodites, meaning the juveniles mature into males but may reproduce as females later in life. Anemonefish should be fed a diet of meaty and herbivore based foods.

The Misbar Sebae Clownfish is also known as the Misbar Sebae Anemonefish. Wild Sebae Clownfish are rarely seen however captive bred are occasionally seen in the aquarium trade. Misbar Sebae Clownfish have a black body, yellow belly and two wide white bands that may not be full bars or irregular, yellow tail and anal fins with an orange snout. There may be slightly color differences in coloration due to collection areas. Sebae Clownfish can grow to almost 5".

We recommend a minimum aquarium size of 30 gallons or larger for this species.
