Just wondering how you can tell they are really picasso clowns?

Not trying to steal your thunder but most of the clownfish I see look like the pair above. Some with straight lines and other with a little wiggle in them.

Thanks

They came FROM the pair that produces what ORA is selling as picasso's, but may not have enough markings to call them picassos. Still, they are nice looking.
 
That sums it up! It was either 49$ for these guys or 300$ a pair for the true picasso. Mine still have some real nice patterns that they wont sit still for the camera to get a good shot.
 
form Virgina to colorado 79 overnight fed ex. Placed the order on thur at 11 oclock Virgina time and recived them 11 oclock colorado time. Not bad for travling 3/4 acrossthe us
 
Just because they are the offspring of a Picasso doesn't mean they are Picasso clowns. You do realize that true Picasso clowns are just mis markings and deformities?
 
Ya both of mine have some mis marking and 1 has the little sideburn kind of thing going on the other has some small oddities about it.
 
These are indeed from the ORA pair. You can tell this by the small hook on the gill and small spot at the tail. However, their strip pattern are not complete, for this reason they are only $50 per fish. The ones with really nice markings go for over $300 per pair. They are still very nice. If you bleed them they may produce nice marking offsprings.
 
I got these from my LFS, who is an ORA dealer on Friday. I no sooner got them in the tank and they hosted in the Trachy brain!
