"Onyx" Clowns on DD?

[jonnybravo22]

Anyone see the "onyx" clownfish that just sold on divers den?

I like divers den (liveaquaria), but that posting confuses me.

what exactly is onyx about these clowns!!??

(I own onyx clowns so I was excited to see a great pair on there, but these are run in the mill regular clownfish. i hope someone didnt get fooled by the name)

Yeah, those should definitely not fetch $150. They look like wild caught percs to me.

Those are not Onyx. They do look like wild caught to me as well...

 

[CockyBrock]

I also agree...look like percs. I own a very nice wc pair of onyx and mine have much better color and better shape than those...

It says wild caught from PNG

Definitely not Onyx, and someone paid too much for them IMO.

Crazy stuff comes out of clowns from PNG, maybe they are trying to sell the genetics they might possibly carry? lol
