Description:
The Caramel Mocha Clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris) is a unique and striking saltwater species, known for its rich caramel-brown hues and deep mocha tones. This morph of the Ocellaris Clownfish features a distinct color pattern, with soft shades of brown and orange, offering a beautiful variation for marine aquariums. Native to the Indo-Pacific, the Caramel Mocha Clownfish is highly sought after for its eye-catching appearance and engaging personality. Hardy and adaptable, it thrives in a variety of tank setups, making it an excellent choice for both beginner and experienced marine aquarists.

Care Level:
Ease: Moderate. Slightly more sensitive than other clownfish varieties.

Water Conditions:

  • Salinity: 1.020–1.025 specific gravity.
  • pH: 8.1–8.4.
  • Temperature: 74–79°F (23–26°C).

Tank Requirements:

  • Minimum tank size: 20 gallons.
  • Prefers live rock, caves, and open swimming space.
  • Requires stable water parameters and regular maintenance.

Temperament:
Behavior: Peaceful and social but may become territorial, especially in pairs or when guarding an anemone.

Compatibility:

  • Pairs well with other peaceful reef-safe species like gobies, blennies, and small wrasses.
  • Avoid aggressive fish or species that may harass or outcompete them for space.

Size:
Adult Length: 3–4 inches (7–10 cm).
Growth: Females are typically larger and more dominant than males.

Reef Compatibility:

  • 100% reef-safe.
  • Will not harm corals or invertebrates.
  • May form a symbiotic bond with host anemones (e.g., Bubble Tip Anemone), but anemones are not required.

Additional Notes:
The Caramel Mocha Clownfish is omnivorous and thrives on a diet of high-quality marine flakes, pellets, frozen mysis shrimp, and brine shrimp. Captive-bred specimens are highly recommended, as they are more accustomed to aquarium life, easier to care for, and environmentally sustainable. With proper care, these clownfish can live up to 10 years or more, making them a long-lasting addition to any marine aquarium.
