poukiebear- is that bird a Painted Conure? Very nice looking bird.

yes it is. Thanks!

I guess One Eyed Bunny has forgoten about the pics...
 
Yeah... possibly. My young GSM doesn't have all the gold stripes developed yet so some still look whiteish. Under various lighting, it could be mistaken for a hint of blue.
 
I used to have a GSM, and my actinics made it look like he had thin neon blue lines between the gold and maroon. It was just the white glowing in the actinics, but you would swear he had blue stripes.
 
There are "Blue Striped Clownfish", but they definitely aren't "Maroon Clownfish"

Meet "Blue Striped Clownfish" (Amphiprion chrysopterus) :wavehand:

You sure that's not white under actinics? That's how most fish with (for a lack of better word) "reflective tape" stripes look under actinics.
 
There are indeed Blue and Gold Striped Maroon clownfish. The bands are yellowish with a very faint blue outline. Look in the clownfish forum for pics.
