Which clownfish variant?

[BL1]

I'm thinking about adding some clownfish into my new tank but, I can't decide which kind. Here's are what I've been debating about:
Snowflake ocellaris - I haven't had any aggression issues with my other ocellaris thats why I like these so much
Black Onyx & Picasso Percula - I'd get one of each for them to pair up
Clarkii Clown
Sebae Clown

I know not everyone's a fan of them but, let me know what you think

Why not skunk clowns? They are my favorite.

But if I had to pick from your list, I'd go with the sebaes.

the skunks almost don't even look like clown fish to me

 

[OhNoNemo]

Black Onyx & Picasso Percula

platinum clowns, the only thing is they are expensive my lfs has one for sale at the astounding price of $300 per fish!!

The platinum clowns are ugly IMHO. Not worth my $300. Slap a large price tag on fish and they become "must haves". I like the black onyx.

 

[eclipse_001]

Never said i would get one, just want to see if someone would pay $300 for a clown

I like the onyx clown fish! I wish I would have gotten those instead of the clowns I have!

 

[ErinCahir]

I'm a sucker for the perculas (says the girl that has maroons & black oscillaris).

Your LFS is way overpriced then, I've seen them online for $300 for a pair.

Thanks everyone!!

The Sebae and Clarks are total a-holes,the other three are less of a a-hole but still can be a-holes.You know I'm a clownfish hater except for gold-stripe maroons.I like the first two choices better.

I would go with the black onyx perculas I almost went with those before I decided on my Gold stripe maroon clown. I am a maroon clown junkie, I love them no matter what everyone else says about them and their temperment. I do not like the clowns that have been messed with as far as genetics and all of that. I think they are pretty but, in my opinion leave well enough alone. Sorry to all you that love the designer clowns.

are they from ORA?

Yeah.Their ORA.

 

[BL1]

Yeah.Their ORA.

I kinda figured, they get more money for theirs than most brreders.

 

[yote]

True.
