Jakuson Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Recently there is so many types of new clownfish emerging.. Just wondering, what is the most popular clownfish right now and the price range for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member peacemaker Posted January 5, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted January 5, 2013 Instead of getting what's popular or the "In" thing right now, why don't you get what you truly like? Personally, I like common clowns that have very reddish, orangey bodies, but they don't bring them in like they used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnick Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Yup I agreed too. Most important is buy and keep what you like. Cos you are the one keeping them and looking at them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member Ahhyi Posted January 5, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted January 5, 2013 I have a pair of common clowns. I really like them. Will be getting a pair of black clowns when they are available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakuson Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 That is so true.. but just wanted to know what is the most popular clownfish amongst the reefers.. I personally like true perculas clowns all along.. but now there is so many different types of them.. like picasso clowns and the recent local aquacultured "black ice clown" which closely resemble the true percs with some missing stripes and some patterns on their body.. Just wondering whether if they are like super expensive? Kind of interesting and thinking of keeping them.. if anyone knows the rough estimate of the price, please kindly PM me.. Thanks..

SRC Member peacemaker Posted January 5, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted January 5, 2013 As far as I know, they are given different grades according to their body patterns and percentage of white (stripes) that covers the body. More white / unique patterns = more expensive. We are talking about 2 blue notes to 6 blue notes and beyond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow... 6 blue notes is a bit over in my opinion... lolz... if this price is for a pair then maybe still can accept... if 6 blue notes for only 1 fish... omg!
