WTB rare, high end clownfish

[*reefermadness*]

Im looking to add some clowns to my collection. Does anyone know of a clownfish breeder locally? I can't decide on what kind I want. I really like the onyx, snowflakes, picassos, black ice, and the traditional black ocellaris clowns. I know that it is really just a matter of preference, but I may need some help deciding. Can anyone give me pros or cons of the different types of clowns? :fish1:

I don't think there will be much difference between all of them besides looks - diver den always has some - I don't know any one that breeds
They are pricy little guys tho

True that! Thanks for the feedback. I might check with custom reef creations and see if he can order me some and save me a little money. We shall see.

Local is awlays better - I have a black per and platinum - pretty fish - could do it over again would do with out a doubt black ice

Yeah, the black ice and onyx would have to be my favorite. I like the midnights too, but they are just a little too bland for my likeing. If I had a big enough tank, I would go crazy with clowns and anemones. I see that your located in Norman, would you mind if I stopped by sometime to check out your setup? I've been tossing around the idea of upgrading to LEDs and would like to see how your fixture looks with your tank.

c'mon folks - I am old and forgetful, but who is the lady (a COMAS member) who has a large clown breeding operation down east of Norman? I think she was on the tank tour last year.

She actually just got ahold of me last night! I am going to meet with her some time this weekend and hopefully pick up some new fishies! I can't think of her name off the top of my head but will update when we meet. Pics to follow.

Thats me!

It sure is! Teresa, will you be free early afternoon tomorrow? I would love to check out your breeding operation. I got to see some of your clowns first hand this evening at CRC. Hopefully we can work something out, I've got more than a couple questions for you. Lol

 

[lauremf2002]

Not to jack your thread, but I for one think Theresa's set up would be a lovely meeting topic. I would love to hear her speak on the subject of clown breeding.

Sorry about forgetting your name, Theresa! I had a old-timer's moment... Squirrel! :spin2:

If she could host the club for a meeting - it would be a great field trip. I have always missed seeing her operation on the tank tour days...
