Are these Piccasos?

ACBlinky · #6 07/21/2007, 08:56 PM

WOW, those are gorgeous! Nice find, way to go

OMG---they are so cute? I have a pair of ocellaris which I love.

DITTO---where to buy and how much?

I like the onyx clowns to. If not mistaken, onyx are the ones that have more black but also are orange and white???

Looks like a BRK tank, LOL. Great find Chris. I have two clarkii that just laid eggs in past few days. I'm not sure if I will try to raise the fry yet or not. Congrats Chris

Thanks everyone! I got the Picassos from a LFS (Blue Ribbon Koi) located in VA. They have AWESOME livestock all the time!

you are lucky. There are so many f/s that don't know what the hek they are doing and are only concerned with "quantity" and not "quality" . Makes me sick.

Had one locally that I had never been to. They had a really nice website so I went to see what they were all about. I practically walked and and walked back out. But curiosity killed me and i had to look aorund. It was bad and stunk. Those poor fish. There was a coral beauty there that wasn't much of a beauty at all.

I have a coral beauty that just glows purple. The one there had no color at all.

They should shut these places down IMO! I got most of my fish and corals on-line. Pretty bad when you get nice stuff on-line that you don't get to "see" first.

Good luck to you and your babies!

Nice chris welcome to the ORA Picasso clown club. I have to shoot you a picture of one of my females. She has onyx colors on one side. Awesome cant wait to see pics of yours in your tank.

Thanks everyone! I hope to get some pics of them tomorrow. I'll update as soon as I have them.

What is a pair of those guys going for?

customanimalart · #16 07/23/2007, 06:20 AM

Awww. Do they stay light orange like that or do they get darker as they get older?

spellbound · #17 07/23/2007, 03:47 PM

Nice pair. Thanks for sharing.

MTB · #18 07/23/2007, 09:09 PM

Nice fish! I've been to blue ribbon koi last year. Great selection.

EvilE · #19 07/23/2007, 10:49 PM

Very nice!!!

ALLBOUTREEF · #20 07/24/2007, 10:41 AM

nice

customanimalart · #21 07/24/2007, 10:48 AM

forgive the photo skill--or lack there of-
here's my false percs (ocellaris) I will get a better pic as this was just a quick snap.

costeroma · #22 07/24/2007, 01:50 PM

those first clowns look like cows toooo cool

143gadgets · #23 07/25/2007, 01:26 AM

Thanks everyone! They are darker than the pic shows. They stay very close to the top of the tank, so it's hard to get an accurate pic.

143gadgets · #24 07/26/2007, 01:02 AM

I think she like my AUssies!
