just finished acclimating them and they both seem to be enjoying there new home, the clownfish is so active and so fun to watch and the betta is real pretty. Also got some empty shells for the hermit crabs and some food and filter pads. I love my new fish:malelovies:

I counted 10 dorsal spines from the picture, so I think it is a true. But the black margins around his bars are awfully skinny, so I could have miscounted the spines. 10 spines is a true percula, 11 is a false.


And for the love of all that is good, DO NOT name him nemo. Nemo was an ocellaris clown, not a percula.

Yeah, dont name him nemo. Name him "incredulous ed jr" or something like that.

Looks more like an A. ocellaris...

Price will also give you a hint, A. percula is more expensive...

thx for the compliments everyone, and rue i think your right if you go by price, there was another tank of clowns that looked the same but had darker color and were 10$ more

Upon further review, it does bear a strong resemblance to an Ocellaris as well.

I'll go with the ocellaris clown too...the black is just too thin to be a percula. Nice clown and nice betta too!

Popeye - That's cute!! I usually name my fish, but I haven't named my guppies yet other than my orange one. I let my 4 y/o nephew name it. So, my orange guppy is Flower now. I'm sure he likes having such a girlie name.
