Here's a pair you don't see every day

[WDLV]

I finally paired up my thielleis. They've been staring at each other through the tank walls for about the last four weeks while the newbie was in quarrantine. I recently picked up the four 45 cubes I plan to use for my clown species tanks. I should be building the wall and stands they'll be going into soon.

those are gorgeous! what other species are you thinking about breeding?

 

[WDLV]

I also have two pairs of A. leucokranos, one pair of A. latezonatus and a pair of A. barberi. I'm chewing on the idea of trying my nigripes pair. They're acting more like I want them to lately.

 

[ExtremeClownfish]

Wow you have the nice, rare stuff! good luck and i look forward to seeing your progress and success!

Nice pair Walt.

We can debate what the heck they are(I personally dont subscribe to the hybrid as species designations), but they certainly are beautiful.

Hoping they turn out to be great breeders, easy to raise, and fast growers

Cheers.

 

[WDLV]

They act like ocellaris. Maybe they'll be just as easy to raise.

What a great looking pair Walt, good luck with them.

Beautiful clowns! That's going to be a stunning display when you finish--post pics, please!

 

[WDLV]

Chris,
Thanks.

velvetelvis,
You can bet on it.



BTW, I spied on them last night and again this morning before lights on and they were sleeping side by side. That's usually a pretty good sign of pairability.

I work in Baltimore - if you do have any youngin's from these two I'll be the first in line - are the lines at all recessive or is offspring the same or misbar?
