Celebrian June 2, 2014 Share June 2, 2014 I'm thinking of getting a pair of designer clownfish for a clownfish-only tank. Any suggestions on what type to get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallreef June 2, 2014 Share June 2, 2014 It's personal preference..I don't care for any except the lightening maroons, and well, those are still out of my price range,lol So it's going to be what you like and how much your willing to pay....

Happyfeet June 2, 2014 Share June 2, 2014 I'm partial to the Black Ice Clownfish, so long as they have their helmets. Well actually, I'm partial to almost all Clownfish so long as they have their helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apcoleman June 2, 2014 Share June 2, 2014 Buy what you like. I have a pair or ocis that breed and a pair of platinums that's also mate. It's all your preference. Don't buy because of what others want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have purchased 2 pairs from him (pair of wyoming whites)and all fish where healthy and eating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mling June 3, 2014 Share June 3, 2014 So we all have heard of stories how hardy a maroon clown is, I remember reading some one say that her tank had a short circuit that even gave her a mild electric shock, killing everything thing but the maroon. My maroon survived a tank fire that was extinguished by a fire extinguisher shot into the tank to put out the fire. My black ocellaris jumped out after trying to bite my hand, missed and fell about 4 feet to the hardwood floor are survived, then a few days later survived a tank crash where the temp got to 97. That clown is over 10 years old. While I don't expect the same type of torture, as mentioned above, but are designer clowns just as hardy as "normal" clowns ? Are there certain hybrids less hardy and require more care ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben A June 3, 2014 Share June 3, 2014 I have a pair of Onyx Picasso clowns, highly recommend them as they are awesome, and a pair of extreme misbar B/W clowns. They have all done great and seem to be very hardy, like most clowns. I recommend you talk to Mattiejay6 or Monkiboy. Both have a large range of designer clowns at great prices.

MBVette June 3, 2014 Share June 3, 2014 I have Snow Onyx that are some cool looking and are pretty rare to see around. But it all comes down to what you like and how big your checkbook is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HgrReefs June 3, 2014 Share June 3, 2014 I have a pair of Maine Mochas. Love them, and not too hard on the wallet. That said, Gold Nugget Maroons are probably the coolest looking clowns out there IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
