Australian Anemonefish

Comments Off on Australian Anemonefish

Anemonefish can be found in Australia‘s famous Great Barrier Reef. Although their predators get stung by the Anemone, the Anemonefish can live quite happily next to the Anemone. They are a hardy fish but rarely imported.

The males are 2 3/8 inches and the females are 3 1/2 in. This fish will get along with most fish except other anemones. One or two can be kept in a single tank. The Australian Anemonefish requires lots of swimming room, so it needs at least a 48 gal. tank.
