From that angle the clown looks like a chrysopterus (Blue-stripe, Orange-fin) clown to me.

Maybe it's the lighting, but that looks more like a Chrys. than a Clarkii to me.

I am gonna have to agree with it being a chrysopterus, this link is good at helping identify clowns.

i know it looks like a chrysopterus, but....something about the width of that midbar is seriously suggesting clarkii....

I retract my chrysopterus. The second picture with the blur, shows the mid bar and a tail bar as well as an overall body shape that confirms that it is a clarki.

she's even harder to mate up The blueish makes me wonder. I have added a couple that was not blueish and one that was. either will be ok for a few hours till they get close to that anemone. It's down hill after that, I'm thinking of putting her in a bucket with airstones for a couple days. Then throw another one in the main tank. then after a couple days throw her back in. I have a little one in qt now. yaw think it might work????

looks like a hybrid between a chrys and a clarkii to me, they do have mixed pairings in the wild of these two species...

she dont like it in the qt tank. she goes from one end to the other back and fourth. the other little guy is starting to come out from hiding but has not touched the anemone. she's going back in tomorrow. I cant stand just watching her go back and fourth
