? about picasso development

[CorbetJackson50]

I just got home with a couple clowns! They were labeled as Picasso's but were not even close to Picasso price! Needless to say they are now acclimating! I am wondering if these would be called Picasso or semi-Picasso, or something else? I am also curious what i should expect to see as development with their color/stripes? Will their stripes change in shape and or size?

Here are some pics. What do you think?

Their stripes won't change. Their color probably will though. The orange will probably turn a more tangerine color and they should get more black color.

nice misbars

The white will not grow or change but the black should color up nicely. The shouldn't be considered picasso's but maybe misbars.

 

[CorbetJackson50]

the larger one looks like it is going to have some nice black in between the first 2 bars

I think they should still be considered Picasso's, because they are from that blood line. Obviously not grade A, but Picasso's of some description. They have a much higher likelyhood of producing "Picasso" offspring than a simple misbar perc does.

yeah i thought a misbar was "missing or incomplete bar(s)"

yeah i know they are not grade A but maybe grade B...

Grade C at best, in order for it to be a B at least 1 stripe on 1 side needs to touch another. Nice fish non the less.

Those are Grade B's. The stripes wont change more black pigment will appear as the get mature. I have some myself and my friends and family are amazed with them.

Grade B doesnt need a stripe connecting, grade C is normal stripe or misbar "missing, or broken stripe"

This is per donisreef.com

 

[jt_milstead]

You have one grade B, and one Grade C........
Grade B as per Doni:Grade B's have either no stripes connected OR possibly ONE side that has connected stripes (unlike A's that must have stripes connected on both sides).

well i bought them for less than you would expect to pay for a pair of percs at a LFS so i am happy.

grade B seems to cover a wide range of clowns. I'd give them a B- =)
