Anyone know what species this is?
I saw this clownfish on another board and I've never seen anything like it. Anyone have some they can post pics of?

Looks like a no bar. ORA farms carry those but they only sell to LFS so you can call them and ask if they sell to any near you.

Fire clowns are Amphiprion ephippium, and naked clowns are ocellaris. The ephippium has a clearly defined dorsal fin that runs almost the entire length of the body, with no "humps". Being ocellaris, naked clowns' dorsal fins have two "humps", like a normal oc.

75Gallons - Do a search in the anemone & clownfish forum for the word "naked", in the titles only, and you'll find plenty of pics. If you're looking to buy some, riptidesreef currently has two pairs for sale. |
