He kind looks like Nelly.....with the little white patch under his eye.

Any idea where to get some? I'd like to get a pair.

 

[snailheave]

C-quest used to have them.
but do you know by 'designer' they can't really predict the pattern of the fish~
they usually crossbreed mis-striped clownfishes and produce even weirder offspring

 

[bang guy]

Looks to me like a hybrid between a Percula and an Ocellaris.

 

[sula]

Is that the same as a Jigsaw Clown?

 

[bang guy]

Yep

Do some offspring of the first generation of ocellaris x percula clowns come out like this or does it take many generations to produce the color pattern?

 

[snailheave]

I think you'll get one out of maybe a dozen batches like that. To be that attractive I mean. Though pretty, the one in the picture is still not perfect with a white spot on the face. I would think they cost a fortune.

To my knowledge the offspring of a Percula X Ocellaris spawn are sterile. Therefore they must be first generation.

Ahh yes, you told me that before but I just forgot. Sorry.
And thanks for the pic too.

 

[viper_930]

Hey Bang,
Do you know of a site where I can see more pitures of the percula x ocellaris clown? Or just have some more pics of them you can post? It will be much appreciated. :yes:

 

[bang guy]

I've just exausted all of my knowledge of hybrid Clownfish. I wish I knew more.

 

[viper_930]

Ok, then. Thanks anyways.
