Misbar ocellaris would be my guess.

See the above photos showing a sort of jigsaw puzzle pattern. That is one of the main features of a picasso. Some also say the first stripe behind the eye needs to have a side-burn, or a thicker than normal stripe, but I think that is up for debate. Although it is cute to have a full spot below a short bar as seen on the mid stripe of one you show, they are not even close to showing any picasso pattern. Having watch some Picasso clowns develop from birth the pattern shows up very quickly and the white is there by 30 to 40 days. The black does take longer to develop just like any perc.

mis-bar perc in my area sell for 15 to 20 bucks usually. bk-if you want to see some pictures of Picasso babies at about a month of age pm me with you email address. I don't have the time to try and re-size pictures for RC.
