New clownfish just discovered!

So as I was leaving my LFS one of the saltwater guys asked me if I had seen this new clownfish that was just discovered. It is called a lightning maroon clownfish. He also told me that a few years ago they found a similar clown with much less of a pattern than this guy.

From the article they are naturally that way. Also its good to see that someone will breed these and help prevent over-fishing or the species.
