What kind of clowns are they?Never heard of them,except the tank bred kinds.

 

[sen5241b]

They have black instead of orange. My LFS has 3 species of clowns in a 100G tank and they get along.

 

[cumminz]

Ya they are black with white stripes, and he called them Australian Clown

 

[HeavyHittah]

i thought they were two different kinds. Black ocellaris clowns (more rare) and the Black and white false percula( black and white with the orange mouth, but it eventually fades to black). I never heard of them being referred to as Australian Clowns.

 

[cumminz]

He said that he gets them from his divers in Australia. i will ask him if he is a black occelaris or a false percula

It probably has a lot to do with the fact that everything from Australia is the "IT" thing in the hobby right now.

 

[reeffreak]

I thought the black/white clowns were genetically altered tank bred clowns.Two kinds,one bred in England and the other in Australia,both not wild caught.

 

[cumminz]

Well i am going there in a few minutes. will ask him more about them
