Onyx Clownfish

[josh27]

I've been looking around for places to buy onyx clownfish but I can't find any. Anyone know of a good place to buy them?

I think this is the place I got mine a few years ago

I don't think SA is retailing any more. Your LFS should be able to order a pair from SA for you.

Fisheyeservices sells SA Onyx with full Onyx coloration.
I think they're $75.

Premium Aquatics was selling them again last month. They are out of them right now, that is where I purchased my Rod's Onyx from.

Thanks for the advice so far. Anyone know why fisheyeservice's website is down? Also, any more good places to buy onyx or maybe even picasso clowns? I'm mostly looking for places that I can see the actual fish that are being purchased. Thanks for the help.

Just went to a LFS yesterday and saw a picasso with very nice stripes but for some reason it had no black appearing at all. How long does it usually take for the black color to appear? The clown was probably 1.5 in. It for some reason was also labeled as a semi picasso. Could the lack of black color on its body be the reason?

it usually take a year before they develop that black stripe...

 

[this is me]

"Semi"-Picasso are those that don't have the white stripes connected on either side.

I know it has a complete stripe going from its head to its tail on both sides. Fore some reason though it has no black coloration developing when I've seen much smaller picassos with black already on them.

They don't all develop their black coloration or stripes at the same rate.

Your LFS should be able to order them.
