ocellaris or percula?

[fahad09]

i am trying to decide which one to get because they are both around the same price. the ocellaris are tank bred and i dont know about the percula. which one is better? the only clown i have ever owned was a maroon clown so i don't how these are.

Ive always had false percs. I'm starting to like true percs more and more. I've got a spawning pair bought if the guy can ever catch them out of his 280g sps tank haha.

i think i might just stick with the tank raised ocellaris because i think they have a better chance of surviving since they are tank bred. then again, i like the color on the true percs a lot better.

tank raised are more hardy so if you are just starting in the reef keeping hobby, i would suggest the ocellaris

 

[fahad09]

would it work if get one false percula and one true percula? would they mate or just fight?

Divers den on LA just put up a pair of true percs for 199.

The female looks nice but to rich for my blood.

 

[romsoccer12]

arent ocellaris's and false percs the same? not adding tankbred or wild factor

Yes yes they are. I just cant always remember how to spell ocellaris, so i just say false perc lmao.

There is a breeder of A. percula in the Crystal Lake area. His name is Mitch (kerusso316), nice guy with nice clowns.

EDIT: I just remembered, I think he's in Algonquin
