Anyone have pics of "naked" ocellaris/false percs?

[Elysia]

A lfs has what I guess are commonly refered to as "naked" ocellaris/false percs. I forget what exactly is on their tag. The fish are head to tail orange, except for a line of black outlining the tip of the tail and maybe a fin or two. Does anyone own clowns like this? Would you mind posting photographs? I'm attracted to these fish, but its hard to justify paying for an all orange marine fish... when they are so common in freshwater! Of course, orange is my favorite color!

I'm bumping my request, which I hope is okay.

I'm confused as to why I am not getting any responses to my request: do people not like these "naked" ocellaris? are there not many out in the market? is it me??? Just curious. Thanks.

I have what the LFS called 'almost naked" but they did have a "naked" one... mine have a couple of white dots on them. I don't have a pic at this time though. They did cost $5.00 more than the normal ones... I just got them because they were smaller/younger.

PS- the "naked" one was 20.00 more than the normal ones... the "normal" ones cost 24.95

The naked percs are available around where I live from time to time. I like percs but I'd rather have a regular, misbar or picasso than nakeds. IIRC, they go for around $24 each here.

the naked ones are kool.. but to me they look like goldfish

Those naked ones look wierd. Saltwater goldfish? LOL!!!

Thanks everyone! The "naked" pics that you linked to look like the ones at the LFS. They are very nice, vibrant fish. It is hard to get past the goldfish idea, but my one true freshwater tank is almost all female bettas, and they can be bright blue, red, metallic green, and white. I could use the "freshwater" arguement against a lot of saltwater fish...

These fish are not Percs..they are Ocellaris.They come from ORA in florida.Any fish store that orders from ORA can get you a pair.Expect to pay around a hundo for the pair.

Here is a picture of mine. It was one of a pair but one died within a week for no apparent reason. I've had this one for about 5 months. Very friendly. I'm trying to decide if I should buy her a mate or trade her in for a different pair that will host in my RBTA.

Nothing will guarantee hosting.

Kerusso -- confused by your "interests"... are you breeding the nikecula or, indeed, breading them and frying them up?
