Description
A slender, peach-to-salmon pink anemonefish with a narrow white stripe running along the dorsal ridge from the head to the tail and a thin white vertical bar just behind the eye. It is among the most timid clownfish, pairing readily and rarely bothering tankmates, so it should not be housed with aggressive damsels, larger clowns, or predatory fish that will bully or eat it. Fully reef safe and hardy on prepared foods; an anemone (Heteractis magnifica, H. crispa, Macrodactyla doreensis, or Stichodactyla gigantea) is not required but will be readily adopted, and a lidded tank plus calm, established tankmates suit it best.
Reef Safe
Yes
Environment
Pink Skunk Clownfish thrive in tanks that replicate their natural habitat, which includes warm water and plenty of hiding places. They are known for forming symbiotic relationships with sea anemones, but can survive without them in captivity.
Behavior
Pink Skunk Clownfish are generally peaceful but can become territorial, especially if the tank is too small. They form monogamous pairs and are known for their interesting breeding behavior, where the male guards and cares for the eggs.
