Still going to go with the Schyelles clown. Wide band i have seen in vancouver. I say 1 4 incher at a pet cetera in nanimo i think i cant rememeber if it was nanimo or not. She was expensive though 60 bucks.

adidas has a saddleback clown, i have a panda clown (black and white saddleback). they seem to be really friendly. honestly wouldn't be surprised if they tried to mate, from what the store said, that may be what they were doing.

I've wanted these forever...

Really? People on RC are all aflutter when they see these too. I think they're OK, but ... what's the appeal with these ones? Looks, or just the rarity of them?

How about A. omanensis for hard-to-find fish .... anyone on good terms with the Sultan? (Actually I thought I read that there is a source of this fish from outside Oman territorial waters? Not sure if it's true, but ... would be interesting if it was.)

It's the looks. I think they are super sharp.

A. omanensis in a different collection zone? One can only wish. $10 says if they are, you're probably looking at the only clownfish that's going to bypass the $1000/per mark.

This is where poachers come in...

I don't see what the hype is, I guess it the rarity.

Heh, I think that's a pretty sharp fish!

Edit: Hmm, now that I think about it, they're pretty similar to A. bicinctus.
