Clarion Angels

[Doc Holiday]

I read somewhere on RC that Clarion Angels are going to be available in the near future. Is LA planning on having any available?

kalel1976,

Thank you for your question regarding the Clarion Angel (Holacanthus clarionensis). We will be checking with our Aquaculture Coral and Marine Life Facility tomorrow to find out if we will be offering this rare species. If we do offer this species, it will be listed in our Diver's Den. You may wish to sign up for our Diver's Den Email Alerts.

kalel1976,

Thank you for your patience while we looked into this question for you. Clarion Angels have not been imported legally in years. There has been talk of legal Clarions coming into the U.S. soon, but this has not yet transpired. Please keep an eye out in the Diver's Den section, as if they do become available legally, we will do our best to acquire a few specimens.

You may wish to sign up for our Email Alerts if you have not already done so.

Hi Tina, in case you are interested, I believe this is why the original poster asked the question:
