Where can I get a Black and White Percula?

[trmiv]

Looking for a Black and White Percula for my wife's tank, anyone seen one around the bay area anywhere?

Wild or captive raised?

 

[FunGuy]

Petco in Vacaville has them regularly. I'd suggest calling one closer.

 

[trmiv]

I'd prefer captive raised. But if wild is all I can find, that's fine too.

Saw a pair at Lucky Goldfish in Oakland yesterday. Looks like wild caught. I do not know the price.

I am sure I saw several at Dolphin Pet village in Campbell on Tuesday. I also believe I saw one at Aquatic Variations in Mountain view.

Have you checked out Mermaid or Atlantis yet?

I`ve got three ORA B&W Percs at work, but I`m in Utah.

Back when I was looking for one, the only place I managed to find one was at Dolphin Pet Village (although I did see many black and white clarkii/saddlebacks mislabelled as b&w occelaris). I believe it was captive raised (had the bulldog face), and was like $45.

Petco in Campbell had some.

 

[trmiv]

Maybe I'll give Dolphin a try.

Dolphin is a good place, I like that store.

Tyler,
Do you have the true black and white one (no orange mouth)??

 

[Natterjak]

Elite, I think they all have orange mouths as juveniles - it turns black as they mature. That's what happened with mine.

 

[Elite]

Thanks Bonnie.. Not all of them right??. I've seem some really big black and white clowns that still have the orange mouth.

 

[MorandiWine]

Well I am really not supposed to say according to RC rules of posting because it would be considered advertising. So there is really no way that I could confirm that we have both wild caught (Darwin Aust) black false percs and also ORA CB black false percs. Again conforming to RC rules I also can not say that if you might be interested in the wilds, they are not on the floor and you will need to see me about taking a look at them in the back room as I dont have a suitable tank for them on the floor.

?'s call me

Tyler, u got any sunburst anthias this week?

 

[trmiv]

Cool.

I cannot confirm or deny that I will be down to this place that may or may not have these rumored fish this coming Friday around 7 to 7:30pm to possibly purchase one of these fish that may or may not exist. Supposedly.

 

[Vincerama2]

If you get the unconfirmed-to-exist fish, make sure you follow proper quarantine and dipping regimens. I say this because the wild caught (orange) ocellaris I had in my quarantine tank keeled over after 3 days. I should have given them a formulin dip, or at least a freshwater dip before they entered the QT.

The afore-mentioned wild clowns have been in my quarentine tanks for 4 weeks now, passed all worming procedures and are free and clear of "bugs" ...... supposedly!
