They're probably around an inch in length, light orange, with their stripes but with very little black. The black will come later

The pair of ORA I got back in November 21, 2008. I'd say that the arrival size is about an 1" to 1.24". No black.
And here it is the clown taken last week.

^^^^^the shape of the head on that one Picasso looks strange, is that just the picture or do some of the Picasso's have body deformity???

Here's pic of my Grade A ORA picassos. This pic was taken a while back, need to update, though they don't look much different than this pic.
Very nice, about how old are they?

some nice clowns cant wait till mine arrive!!
Thanks.
I will probably not try to raise them as that would require lots of free time and patience. Two things I am short on. I will try to get some tile in there so that the eggs could be pulled if someone else in the area wanted to try their hand.
Mine have been cleaning and going through the motions for a LOOOONNNGGG time. Its been so long that I stopped looking to see if there were actually eggs. I am pretty sure this is their first batch but could have missed prior ones. Good luck with yours. I'm sure it will happen sooner or later. Clowns just don't seem to have our same timetable.

Gorgeous fish BTW. We need a recent pic. What does their other side look like? I assume their black is still filling in?
I love the sideburns. The male of my two is not the original pair. The original one (who jumped to its death) had awesome patterns and huge sideburns like the ORA parent does.

Awsome. I have had my new pair of picasso's for about a week in my sump (temp qt) and all looked great. So now they are in the display for three days and continue to look great. Maybe you guys can help me out, not to steal this thread, but has anyone else noticed there pair swim together towards the top of the tank? Really just staying in the top 3/4 of the tank (tank size below) is this normal?
