I just got a gorgeous pair of coral sea clownfish (color variation on cinnamon), and I was wondering what to feed them otherwise normal saltwater flake...
Any other info on these types of clowfish would be great! biggrin.gif

Mysis is always a great food for most marine fish. The clowns will also take pelleted foods like Newlife Spectrum which I find to be a great staple.

They won't turn food down, so feel free to be creative and give them a variety of marine fish foods.

Thanx! I have mysis shrimp so I'll try those, and I know the LFS has pellets so I'll check on Saturday.
Where do you get Newlife Spectrum?

Well Bigalsonline.com carries there line. Here are there marine pellets. They also have a large fish formula which includes marine fish.

I used to have a pair, and I fed mine P.E. brand mysis as well as Formula-2 flakes. They prefer the more meaty stuff, but they were just fine with the flakes as well.

Cool, I have mysis and flakes...
Did you have cinnamon or coral sea?
