What type of clownfish do I have?

[dmvrider703]

I'm bought the clownfish at my local lfs and they had it down as a picasso. But other picasso fish look very different. Anyone have any ideas. Thanks

A good quality snowflake ocellaris.

 

[IdahoGuy]

Yep, a great one too.

Ok so I put this question in another forum by accident and so far I ve gotten Wyoming clown, snowflake and platinum. Any other suggestions? Really would like to put a name on her. Thanks

She is a snowflake 99% sure... The one below is a naked ocellaris. I also see a Banggai cardinal in the pix...

Ok thanks for info guys..any suggestions on how to get them to host my giant carpet or bta? I trapped both clowns in there..the naked would frolic and snow would get stung..once I release trap both swim away. I know snow needs time to build immune sys..but what about the naked? Thanks

Nothing you can do but wait. Some people have claimed success by pasting a picture of clowns being hosted where they can see it, but I've never tried it, I usually just wait it out, some clowns are just stubburn and never host.

Appreciate it guys..snowflake it is then. Also what are the chances these two ocellaris and percula pair? What color pattern would be the dominate if they spawned?

From my fish breeding experience those two will throw 75% plus regular ocellaris... Maybe a few naked or slightly snowflake patterns...

These are occellaris (fake percula) and not true percula...

Got it..thanks again..how does she look anyway? Healthy? Nice pattern?

Where did that chart come from? I need to send it to someone else.

 

[ClayaLaLeona]

You have a very good looking fish there, mind if I ask how much she set you back?

 

[dmvrider703]

Wow..thanks for chart.

I was trying to ID a clown I have and found it on google img search. I originally posted it here.. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2259539

I was looking for the higher quality version.. let me see if I can find it...

Thanks!

Oh barely naked was $25 and snowflake was $50..I think I got really lucky with both. Right place at right time.

I see a Picasso perc and extreme misbar occy

 

[dmvrider703]

See that's what both fish stores named them. Picasso and misbar. But here on reef central I m getting mixed answers. How bout piccasnow and barely named misbar..haha
