Origin
Selective breeding in aquaculture facilities, particularly in the U.S. and Indonesia. Hybrid of DaVinci and Mocha Clownfish strains.

Visual & Functional Appeal
Bold swirls of white layered over smooth mocha and orange tones. Each individual is uniquely patterned, often with Picasso-like flair. Small size and confident swimming add lively contrast to coral reefs.

Requires stable marine parameters, moderate lighting, and live rock structures. No special coral, flow, or filtration needs. Protein skimmer optional for small setups.

Best Use Cases
Showpiece for nano reef displays or modern aquascapes. Ideal in reef-safe communities, beginner saltwater tanks, or with other aquacultured clownfish.
