The common clownfish species really aren't very picky, especially if they're tank raised. Percula and ocellaris clownfish are the most easily found, and they'll eat anything from live foods (brine shrimp, live rock invertebrates) to marine flake food. Frozen foods work great as well. Most other typical species (tomatos, maroons, flame saddleback, etc.) will also accept manmade foods. I think the rarer species can be difficult to feed, however, which is one of the reasons why they don't do as well in captivity.



And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

IMO clownfish are swimming goats, will eat anything you put infront of them.
