Midnight Ocellaris Clownfish – Captive-Bred
The Captive-Bred Midnight Ocellaris Clownfish is entirely black with a yellow/orange nose and face. This unique color variety of the popular Ocellaris Clownfish lacks the three white bands and makes a striking addition to the home aquarium. This member of the Pomacentridae family is an excellent addition to almost any saltwater aquarium system.
Captive-bred fish have a unique advantage over wild-harvested species, as they are generally very hardy and more accustomed to conditions found in the home aquarium. Therefore, captive-bred fishes make a great choice for novices and seasoned aquarists alike.
The Captive-Bred Midnight Ocellaris is easy to breed in the home aquarium. The females will be the largest of the pair and the two fish will usually stay close to each other in the tank.

The Midnight Ocellaris is a stunning addition to my tank. It’s completely black with a vibrant yellow face, and it looks great against the background. It’s easy to care for and has been very active in the tank. I didn’t expect such a bold color variation, and it’s become a highlight of my aquarium.

I bought this fish for a new saltwater setup, and it has adapted quickly. The black color stands out well, and it seems to get along with my other fish. A bit shy at first, but now it’s exploring the tank regularly.

The captive-bred status makes a big difference. It’s healthier than the wild ones I’ve seen before. The fish is active, stays near its companion, and shows no signs of stress. Highly recommend for any saltwater enthusiast.
