Clownfish - Picasso Full Band Plus (Amphiprion percula) *Captive Bred*
The Captive-Bred Percula Clownfish, also known as the True Percula, or Clown Anemonefish, are normally found in association with anemones on the reefs of Oceania, the Indo-Pacific, and the Great Barrier Reef. It can be found individually, or more commonly, in pairs or small groups within the same anemone. Captive-Bred Percula Clownfish are usually mostly orange and white when young. As the fish matures the black sections between the white stripes will darken with age.
Picasso Percula are captive bred designer clownfish, usually displaying wider white banding and sometimes a 'jigsaw puzzle' like banding. They are an attractive alternative to the standard Percula and generally very desirable.
In nature, the Percula Clownfish is an omnivore. In an aquarium, it will readily accept most meaty foods and herbivore preparations.
