Oh is it? But the tail was orange when I first bought it and now it turned black. I'm wondering if it's a black clown?

Yea, it's from cf and I paid quite a high price for it. But I think it's worth it as it is wild caught.

Percula, probably Solomon Island variant. Almost impossible to get WC black ocellaris now, no one is willing to collect them. ORA grade A picasso clowns might actually be cheaper now, they are throwing price.

Always something more important than fish.

So far... the new batch not really Grade A.. After local breed available... I think the shipment more conservative? That's what I observed... I am actually still looking for some nice pattern one... but.... Anyway... let me know if got any Grade A cheap one ya... Cheers... :cheers:
