The Maroon Clownfish, Premnas biaculeatus, is a type of clownfish that are found in the eastern Indian Ocean, from Malaysia to Queensland. They can grow up to be about 16 centimeters (6. 3 inches), and as they grow, they get more aggressive to other clownfish. They are also known as the Spine-Cheeked Clownfish, or the Maroon Anemonefish. They are suggested to have a 30-gallon tank. It normally likes to have a host anemone such as the Bubble Tip Anemone. The Maroon Clownfish likes frozen shrimp and herbivore preparations.
