I have a pair of Clarkiis, the one that I think is the male Has three blue strips. I also have a pair of Blue Strips and the blue on the clarkii is the same color as the blue strip. Has anyone seen this before?
 
the outer edges of the stripes tend to have a bluish hue to them and it's more pronounced in my male but they aren't solid and not enough so that anyone would call them blue. got a pic??
 
I have posted a picture in my gallery. I don't know how to post it in the thread. The one in the upper left is the one with blue strips.

the pic is so small it's hard to tell but it looks like normal white strips to me.

still not the best pic, but i ran into the same when trying to take the one above, they don't want to stay still for long :) it looks like normal strips with the hint of blue which more pronounced in younger fish and isn't as noticeable as they mature and grow (strips get wider).
 
FWIW: It is very difficult to reproduce the blue stripes seen on some species of clownfish with a camera, so don't kill yourselves trying. :D
