Sea & Reef Longfin Ice Storm Clownfish is a beautiful variation of the Ice Storm Clownfish that retains the classic look of the Ice Storm while sporting long flowing fins with a rounded even outline.
The Sea & Reef (S&R) Ice Storm Clownfish is the result of breeding the Mocha Storm Clownfish with the Black Ice Clownfish. resulting in a beautiful white fish with orange eyes and fins.
This Clownfish does not need an Anemone to survive, but will accept many different Anemones as its host, including corals. Their favorite Anemones to call home are the Carpet Anemones Stichodactyla Gigantea or the Magnificent Anemone Heteractis Magnifica.
These fish will accept most fish foods and are perfect for reef tanks. More than one can be kept in the same aquarium and they prefer to be kept in groups.
Clownfish have a very distinct swimming motion that is different from most fish. This is likely passed on through their genetic makeup from centuries of wiggling within the tentacles of Anemones. As the Clownfish wiggles within the stinging tentacles the Anemone’s mucus is likely smeared over the Clownfish’s body, which then protects it from additional stings.
In the wild they live in small groups with one large dominant female, one smaller sexually active male, and a handful of smaller males and juveniles. When the female is lost the largest male will then change sex and become the dominant female with the other Clowns moving up the ladder behind it.
