Why is this? Does not make sense to me. Advise?

To make this simple I would look at it as being an ocellaris clownfish with a unique pigment. Therefore you will most likely get more regular ocellaris clownfish from their spawns then the actual unique pigment the parents have.

I may be mistaken as Ive only seen pictures but baby fish (fry) are near impossible to tell what they will look like upon hatching. If you can clearly see them at all they should be a transluscent color. Even then the chances of your pair producing a ww pair are probably 1-2 in the entire batch. As said above it is a genetic mutation that causes the extreme colors. I really hope you are able to breed and raise the young becuase from what ive read noone else is having any luck.

Can you share where to read about others WW breeding problems? Thank you.

c-quest for example. since they moved they havent had any luck. from their website "NOTE: C-Quest has Moved its Location, and has not fully ramped up production on this strain. They have not shipped since 2010, so dont be fooled by some stores claiming to have Original C-Quest whites. SR is taking down names, and keeping a waiting list, so when they DO begin shipping again, you will be notified."
And these arent exactly flooding the market if you know what i mean

Ya you wont be able to tell what they are going to really look like for atleast 4months post hatch sometimes even up to a year. I have also read a lot about problems with ww spawning/ raising fry

4mts sound like very long time. I seen some babys that are 1mth old and have full color. Hope dont take as long as you say. Thanks.

Check out percs and how long they take to develop their full colors. Its not a month. I just saw 4 month old rods onyx and they had no black at all.

I know whats you means. Some percs take long time to color up, but i seen C-Quest Onxy babies that color up in 3 mths. reaally sweet! i guess it all depends on genetics. I know Occ's are much much faster.

True. the Occ seems to color up and get stripes much faster than percs and since WW are Occ's hope fully I can tells a few weeks or twos after the META.
