Wyoming White Clownfish were originally introduced in August 2009 by legendary fish breeder Bill Addison, owner of C-Quest hatchery. We have been told that the original broodstock fish was a pair of regular Ocellaris Clownfish that occasionally would produce a few Wyoming White offspring. Only a limited amount of the original Wyoming White Clownfish was produced because a year later C-Quest ceased operation and the production of Wyoming White Clownfish. Sea & Reef Aquaculture is the first hatchery to bring the Wyoming White Clownfish back in production. Reef Builders broke the news in August 2012:

Temperament & Captive Care

The temperament and captive care requirements for Wyoming White Clownfish are very similar to that of the regular Ocellaris Clownfish. It is relatively peaceful and hardy. They thrive in saltwater aquariums with or without an anemone present.

 
Feeding

Most clownfish are omnivorous feeders, meaning that they will consume a variety of different food types. In nature the diet of clownfish consists of crustaceans (such as copepods and amphipods), algae, polychaete worms, and leftovers from the anemone’s meal. Our captive bred fish are conditioned to eat a variety of aquarium diets including pellets, flake food, frozen Mysis shrimp, and frozen brine shrimp.
