I believe they are omnivores......they eat many things such as flake, frozen and pellet.

The weird thing is I got a Clarkii the other day and he still hasn't touched any food yet.
I have had no problem getting any of my Occelaris' to eat though.

Make sure...
make sure that the other clownfish aren't bullying the Clarkii which is why he isn't eating. Also, Wild clowns, especially from the Indian Ocean, are notorious for having some form of fluke or transparent parasite. They should always be quarrantined and given a fresh water bath during qt. (You'll see the parasites at the bottom of the container you use for the bath. We used plastic bags so that we could see the things falling off the fish. It was amazing)
Hope this is the answer
