New Clownfish

[JTL]

I purchased a ocellaris clown on line to replace my female who literally jumped ship. The new one is much more of an orange color than the other own that I have. He/she is much more of a tangerine color, much prettier. The new arrival also has a very small white pimple like thing below the mouth. Almost like a cyst. Any idea what that is and do the colors vary alot?

Could be from rubbing up against the bag and go away on it's own. Or could be Lymphocystis. Hard to tell. Clowns differ in color, depends if they are wild caught or tank raised.

color can also be an effect of the food it's been fed, the lights it has been under, etc. Hope it stays the same color for you if you like it like that.
