amphiprion chrysogaster

[elekamit]

Does anyone have amphiprion chrysogaster in their tanks?
Exactly how RARE is this clown?

[elekamit]

Anyone?

[zooqi]

For me it counts rare because would love to get a pair and can't find any. I would say very rare.

is this the fish you are looking for....


I have never seen one ANYWHERE ever. Even on DFS, and that's saying something...

Good luck

I don't think they had any collection stations in the island of Republic of Mauritius.

It is very rare.

There are only two, maybe three people that have these on this list. Of the clowns you can actually get, they are among the most rare.

Ok, we saw eggs Aug 19th 07 . Babies ? They might be like Clarkii and Akindynos clownfish that Sanjay bred a year and half ago (I got the babies). I know they were not as easy as false because I tried them too and by the time I got the eggs home from his house they were flat on the buttom.

Here is weird thing that happened to us two weeks ago. My wife and I own stores in local malls where we also use cordless phones in the stores. We got a statment where there was a bill from At&t for $170 for two calls total 15-17 minutes to Madagascar. They happened before store hours too. My wife and Daughter are the only two work at that store. After going through investigation they suspected that somebody tapped on the line using cordless phone and getting in our frequency (those phones that do that are in the market). We had to go and check where Madagascar was and that's where I started to read about Mauritius. (out of subject but learned about the island two weeks ago). After that I went and removed cordless phone from the stores. at&t removed the charges (one time only).

They developed and hatched, but the timing was bad, no attempt at collection and rearing.

Larvae are Clarkii Complex small, S-strain rotifers would be great to have on hand.

Looks as if every a. chrysogaster in North America is right here in Northern Virginia! LOL
