The ORA Gladiator Ocellaris Clownfish is a stunning designer clownfish featuring smooth, flowing white markings across a brilliant orange body. Also known as a DaVinci or Fancy Clownfish, each Gladiator displays its own distinctive combination of connected stripes, white spots, swooshes and irregular patterns.
Standard-grade Gladiators typically display one to three unique markings that distinguish them from a traditional Ocellaris Clownfish. Their patterns may not be symmetrical, making every fish naturally one of a kind.
Captive-bred by ORA, the Gladiator is hardy, reef-safe and well suited for both beginner and experienced saltwater aquarists.

High-quality marine pellets
-
Marine flakes
-
Frozen mysis shrimp
-
Enriched brine shrimp
-
Finely chopped marine foods
Feed at least once daily. Two or three smaller meals may be provided when possible, but avoid overfeeding.
Compatibility
Gladiator Ocellaris Clownfish are generally peaceful but may become territorial after establishing a home or forming a pair.
They can be housed with many peaceful community fish, corals and marine invertebrates. Avoid mixing them with different clownfish species in smaller aquariums.
An anemone is not required. If an appropriate host is desired, a Bubble Tip Anemone is a popular option. Anemones should only be placed in mature aquariums with adequate lighting and stable water conditions.
