CLOWN TRIGGERFISH FOR SALE FULL
At this size the juvenile clown triggers from Biota Marine are still developing their full black, white and yellow-trimmed tuxedo but already we can see some interesting variations.Ĭaptive bred fish, be they angelfish or clownfish, typically show some greater degree of variability compared to their fully wild counterparts.
We stopped by Quality Marine last week to get a firsthand look at the itty bitty clown triggers and they are truly adorable, and about half the size of the typical wild-caught specimens. On top of culturing bluelined seabream and bumphead parrotfish, Tom’s latest breakthrough is in the captive culture of the clown triggerfish and we are happy to report that these cuties are already shipping from Quality Marine in Los Angeles. Tom Bowling, one of last year’s MACNA speakers talked about how he raises fish in Palau and of the large spawning aggregations that are well documented there.
Frank Baensch has raised crosshatch triggerfish in the past, but if there’s one species whose juvenile are extremely popular in the saltwater aquarium it’s clown triggerfish, Balistoides conspiccillum. There’s been quite a frenzy of captive bred fish in the marine aquarium world lately, but the new cultured clown triggerfish from Biota Marine in Palau are an exciting new group of fish altogether.
