Introduction

Few designer anemonefish depart as dramatically from the familiar orange-and-white Amphiprion ocellaris as the Snowstorm. Rather than modifying the conventional three-bar pattern, the Snowstorm is dominated by an expansive field of brilliant white extending across nearly the entire body.

That white body is framed by intensely dark fins and eyes, creating a stark contrast that becomes particularly dramatic as the fish matures. Along the boundaries between white and black, subtle cool blue tones can sometimes appear, lending the fish the icy character suggested by its name. The effect is almost monochromatic: a study in white and black whose restrained palette makes it immediately recognizable. 

The Snowstorm phenotype combines two celebrated designer anemonefish lineages, the storm and snowflake. Despite their extraordinary appearance, Snowstorms retain the approachable husbandry of captive-bred A. ocellaris. They readily accept prepared foods, do not require a host anemone, and may form stable pairs as they mature. Their bold personalities and tendency to establish a favored territory make them conspicuous aquarium inhabitants even before their unusual coloration is considered.

Methods

Important Notes

Snowstorms are the combination of an almost porcelain-white base, interrupted with a light peppering of undulating black spots and sharp black margins on the fins. Its exceptionally clean silhouette is shaded by subtle blue tones along the margins. As a pair, their matching palette and individual variations in pattern make Snowstorms eyecatching in any aquarium
