Re: hyperpigmented clown

No worries. I actually just read a artical on Rc about this. They say it is just the fish maturing and nothing to worrie about. Good luck with em.

Re: hyperpigmented clown

One of my clowns has the same thing. Was curious to know what it was as well, however, because he was eating well and acting normal I just fed with garlic and brushed it off.

Re: hyperpigmented clown

that is what you call a percula clown fish. it's what makes them different to their cousin ocellaris.

That what I was thinking but the owner at the LFS said for sure they were occelaris. May be he is wrong I don't know. Not to say your wrong or anything, but can you back it up with some link or anything. Just so I know for sure. If that sounds rude I didn't mean it that way, and I'm sorry.
