Overview
The Lightning Maroon Clownfish (Amphiprion biaculeatus) is one of the most exciting naturally occurring designer clownfish to be discovered. These fish develop extraordinary stripes that seem to spill over their sides like lightning bolts. Their stripes are highly variable and can take on any number of attractive formations. As the fish matures and becomes darker in color, these patterns will also change and become more visually striking. The Lightning Maroon clownfish stem from the geographically distinct White Stripe variety of Amphiprion biaculeatus.
Female Maroon clownfish can reach sizes up to 6 inches! This is a fish best kept singly or in pairs with a dramatic size difference between the individuals.
