About

Amphiprion mccullochi is one of the rarest clownfish in the aquarium trade, endemic only to Lord Howe Island and Elizabeth Reef off Australia. It displays a dark brownish-black body with a single white head bar and vivid white tail, exuding a sleek and sophisticated appearance. Its restricted range and limited availability make it a highly prized collector's specimen.

Care Guide

House in an aquarium of at least 100 L with a suitable host anemone or as a bonded pair in a reef. Feed a varied diet of frozen mysis, chopped mussel, and quality marine pellets. Semi-aggressive toward other clownfish; keep as a pair only. Requires slightly cooler temperatures (22–26°C) than most clownfish. For experienced collectors.
