Blackfoot clowns

[logankolby]

I recently lost my pair of clowns. I was thinking about mating a pair of Blackfoot clowns. Sometimes known as rose skunk clowns. Anyone ever seen any for sale???

bluezooaquatics.com has some in stock.

Common names are a problem. I've always heard "blackfoot" used to describe a. nigrippes clowns. Is that what you're looking for? They're pretty hard to find and harder to keep alive, I'm afraid.

Edit: I've never heard them called rose skunk clowns, but I just looked at bluezoo and that's what they call them too. Live and learn.

A bit of trivia.........nigripes is Latin for "black foot". Don't know where the common name "rose" came from, but that seems to be the usual.

Yep, I found them on Bluezoo. I'm debating on getting some of those or Allardi's.
