Aquarium Coral Reefs, Coral Information for the Reef Tank Aquarium with Pictures of Corals. Reef Corner. Aquacultured Clownfish. Clownfish were the first popular saltwater aquarium species to be aquacultured.
Aquarists and aquaculture biologists have bred them for over 40 years. Captive-bred clownfish are indistinguishable in behavior and morphology from clownfish found in nature. ORA has taken clownfish culture to the highest level, producing the largest, most colorful and healthiest fish ever grown. One popular misconception about cultured clownfish is that they will not symbiotically associate with anemones like their wild counterparts. This is not true, as demonstrated by the many professional and amateur aquarists who have observed cultured clownfish associate with host anemones in aquariums. ORA clownfish are raised on common aquarium foods, and therfore, they are well adapted to aquarium diets. By nature clownfish are territorial and mate for life. A nest of clownfish eggs in nature may have only a few survivors into adulthood, while farm-raised spawns generally have higher survival rates.
