Gold x Lightning Maroon (Premnas biaculeatus)

Description:
The Gold x Lightning Maroon is the resultant cross between a Gold Nugget Maroon and Lightning Maroon. Offspring exhibit a large lightning like pattern like its lightning parent that usually connects to the tail bar and when the fish matures its milky white color will turn gold like the gold nugget.

Behavior:
Like all clownfish, Premnas biaculeatus is a sequential hermaphrodite. The largest individual present will exert dominance and become reproductively female. The next largest fish will become reproductively male. The female will not tolerate other smaller individuals.

Compatibility:
Usually ignores reef invertebrates and corals. Clownfish sometimes adopt various corals and algae as substitutes for host anemones.

Food:
Proaquatix specimens have been weaned to take aquarium pellets and flakes. Freshly frozen invertebrates such as ocean plankton, Mysis shrimp, and brine shrimp will be readily accepted.
