LFS claimed wild caught fishes are better

[PFoster]

CB clowns are much more hardy to our aquariums. Now putting a CB clown back into the wild... probably not the best idea but I dont think too many people in Canada will be doing this :P

WC often come in with diseases.

That being said the store owner was correct with respect to SOME of the CB clowns. Clowns are currently being bead just about everywhere; sri lanka isreal, Indo, USA, canada etc.
Typically the ones from overseas are WAY cheaper but their color is also VERY poor and they dont seem to be very hardy at all.
The orange in these clowns is more of a yellow.
The white is drab and the black is almost non existent.

I would guess that his experiences with respect to CB clowns is based on the ones ordered from overseas, in which case he is absolutely correct.
But good quality clowns from just about anywhere in North America are WAY better than wilds IMO.
