Great article! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
I wanted to point out something that I think is a small error, however. The photo of the small black and white clown is, I believe a black variant of A. ocellaris. It does not (to me) look anything like an A. latezonatus. Here are some photos of A. latezonatus for comparison...
And in my tank...
Note the body shape, the blue lips, the constriction of the head bar on the forehead, the fact that the middle bar is incomplete over the back, and the broad white margin only on the end of the tale. Most importantly, the middle bar is, in fact, quite wide (hence the name of the fish).
