I'm so excited!

Okay so I have finally got the courage to purchase more livestock after my firefish death......I decided to get my clown pair (juvies) and found a not so local breeder. (Lives about 2.5 hrs from me)
After some pics have been sent back and forth I have decided to pick these 2.

Tell me what you think and grade if possible....personally I just really like the way they look and am extremely excited to receive them tomorrow. Had to tell someone as my wife never gets excited lol!!!

(If pic is bad sized let me know I'll upload from PC)

Look great! Oh, the wife thing, yes. I'm thankful she's supportive in my hobby for so long. She knows it's my therapy and escape from reality. Lol. Hey, finding someone to talk reef is tough at times! Co-workers think I'm nuts or a mad scientist, I love it! Lol.

They look great, gotta love clowns! My wife and I have a system. She makes believe she cares when I show her my new fish and I make believe I care when she shows me new plants in her garden.

Ahahaha thanks everyone...yes she is supportive but not to enthused on the $ I have spent lol....it is also my therapy/escape. I can stare into my tank for hours....and I don't even have fish yet lol....that's is why she supports it and she knows I want it for the education factor for our 5month old daughter when she becomes old enough.

But yes all I get from her is a "That's nice" lol.

I will be doing TTM and 2 rounds Prazipro keeping them in QT for 72 days after the price tag on these guys I need to ensure they are in pristine health!

I'll try and get better pictures after I obtain them tomorrow

The clowns are gorgeous. Note that the 72 days often quoted for QT is for fallow tanks. Probably overkill for fish that have been through TTM. Especially domestically raised clowns.

you can toss in a couple formalin baths during ttm as well...

Yep they are picasso...I think premium by the looks of the ones I am seeing pictures of online...I am mainly concerned....I did about a 2 month QT regime on my firefish...and it was fine...2 weeks in my display and it died...I think a bristle worm got the best of it and being a noob I panicked and dosed when I should have just left it for a couple days....but I have since built a Fuge to put all my bug bristle worms in. And I am thinking these will be the only 2 fish I have in my 36g display...hopefully they breed and I can flood the market with these amazing looking clowns!

Anyone in canada know where to get Formalin I have heard a lot about it....but haven't done a major about if digging.

I also would like to discuss anemone in that size tank....I know BTA may be out of the question but will probably be posting in the appropriate thread. This was just a post out of pure joy! Can't wait to see them in person...have decided once they get their gender I will be naming them after Nemo's Parents.

Marlin and Coral.
