Well, I talked to Rod last week about getting some clowns. After speaking with him I decided to go w/ some $25-35 clowns that weren't of full color that others their same age were. Since I was tossing up the option of getting onyx or solomon island percs with a chance that the solomon's would gain a lot of black as well, getting a cheaper pair of Rod's seemed like a fun option to try. Anyways, sorry for the crappy quality photos, but here's my new Rod's Onyx (maybe not so onyx for now, but they've got a shot!):
First few are during acclimation, one of the pics has a purple cap from a 1g water jug. I don't think people realize how small these guys are! So dang cute. This last one is a pic of a bunch of gutter guard I used to "seal" off the top of the tank. These guys aren't cheap, better keep 'em in the water! As a side note, UPS delivered these way late in the day, like 3pm. They were basically dead looking when in their packed bag. After opening the bag and acclimating them, they came slowly back to lively hood. So just be careful not to quickly come to the conclusion that they're dead or dying, give them a chance to acclimate!

i should also note that it's cold as heck here in Montana right now, that's why I stated the time and to still acclimate. I'm sure if these were delivered mid day somewhere warm there wouldn't be any misconceptions of life or death.

As requested. They're starting to hang out near my xenia, I'm guessing they'll use it as a "nest" and home for a while. I just fed a blend of stuff I use to feed my 45g tank, and they were picking and eating at some of the stuff, so that's good. Hopefully they won't be too fussy come dinner times! I guess I'm supposed to feed them like 3 times a day to get them to grow?

why do your clowns have frowns on their faces? I thought Rod's clowns were HAPPY clowns?

those pics make you onyx's look the size of pitbulls! I can only hope that my less expensive onyx's catch up w/ the black.. one can only hope. I've heard that some of it has to do w/ nutrition, but I'm no genious so I have no idea. I've been feeding some BBS, crushed ORA Glo, and other frozen foods.

I couldn't get him to ship the rod's food w/ the fish, frozen food, warm water.. I got it. It's just ordering that stuff from online suppliers is way outta control for shipping, even though it doesn't need to get here over night now that it's freezing in most northern states! Oh well, maybe one day I'll make it to a city w/ a store that actually sells it. Until then I'll use BBS, frozen cyclops, and crushed ORA Glo (which is what I read somewhere that ORA uses to darken up their b/w occellaris)
Great lookin clowns by the way.. I wish I could take sharp pics like that, mine always turn out gritty. The price I pay for being cheap w/ my camera selection.

Are any of your clowns turning red instead of orange?
Mine are still itty bitty, but look reddish, especially next to picassos. The picassos look almost yellow with a bit of orange. Is this okay? I hope so because I like it. |
