Sammler Clownfish?

[eric1194]

Hey Guys,

Heading to Thailand in November and while I was researching potential dive sites I came across a reference to a "Sammler Clownfish"

"The english name for this dive site is derived from the profusion of Sea Anemone's that cling to the edges providing a magnificent back drop of colour from the Sammler Clown fish that make this their home."


Anyone heard of this clown or know what we commonly call it?


Thanks

Eric

I've never heard of that name. A quick google search seems to lead right to the same dive site description on a couple of sites, as well as a few pictures of percula clowns. My guess is that it is a local name, kind of like us calling small bluefish "snappers".

Thanks Bill,
