About the Gold Stripe Maroon Clownfish

Gold Stripe Maroons are the biggest and boldest clownfish. Their white juvenile stripes turn gold as they mature, set against a velvet-maroon body.

They can be territorial, especially females, so add them last and keep them with other robust fish. They readily host bubble tip anemones.
