There already is a fair share of designer clownfish on the market but that hasn’t stopped breeders from continuing experimenting with different varieties, and refining old ones. The latest hybrid freak clownfish from Marine Reef Solutions, located in Malaysia, are actually really cool and quite unique Amphiprion occelaris featuring just a single spot where their middle bar is suppose to be.
Some more refined varieties show a very close to perfectly round circle with no remaining bars on the top and bottom, while others are less “perfect” still showing some bars. You’ve undoubtedly seen single spot Amphiprion percula varieties of extreme misbar clownfish, but it is awesome to see these Amphiprion occelaris show similar and more refined traits and that they are produced in large numbers.

The name of these Marine Reef Solutions one spot occelaris, which is going to get you to extremely excited and rushing to get yourself a pair? Still up in the air, and Marine Reef Solutions is up for suggestions on their Facebook page (be sure to “like” them as well!).
In all seriousness these are a logical and great addition to the myriad of clownfish varieties, and we wished we currently had better pictures to share. We’re not sure if these particular one spot Amphiprion occelaris will ever come to the US, but we wouldn’t be surprised if another company released their own variation of the one spot clownfish.
