That's where I'm at. They are all percs to me. There isn't enough of a consistency from one set to the other to even say they are a true color variant IMO.

The gene is recessive (IMO). My fri look like their parents ( no orange between the bars, or on the dorsal). If it wasnt a recessive gene, wouldn't I get varying degrees of black? Maybe even some with no black?

So your saying that there is no difference between Skels female and his male?

When you have seen enough of them ( in person) that look like Skels, mine or a quite a few others, and none of them have orange between the bars or orange dorsals then maybe you would see the consistency.
I guess we can agree to disagree

For anyone new the pictures will be X's more often because I had to downgrade my account while I adjust my budget to just moving out. (No job at the moment and a car/rent payment)

could anyone tell me wether a H.magnifica would be comfortable in a 175l aquarium 47.5,16.5,16.5 with 400w MH 6500K, 80W actinic t8, Fluval 304, 4+ internal reef tank with 20kg live rock and a pair of clowns, GSM or True clowns(undecided), I'm new and am willing to devote alot of time/money to keeping it if the anemone would be comfortable once inside. I've heard they're difficult and would like any info if possible?
Thanks ALOT Rob

Heres a pic of my 2 chaps. There about 8 years old, the female is about 2.5' long and the male is about 1.5'
They feed out of my hand and everytime I stand up they dart to the front of the tank There getting a new tank soon with LR and hopefully a coral host

guybirch, do you know if those clowns are wild caught or Tank bred? It looks like a hybred between A. Percula and A. Ocellaris.
