Hmm I wonder why the picture didnt show up. I will try again...

It most likely was tank bred in Europe where 90% of the others are coming from. there is 1 guy in Darwin australia (where the black O. clowns are only found - collection is also illegal there) who breeds them from time to time.

nice clown though. no orage at all on it?

Looks great Matt!

Permits can be aquired for the collection of the species in austrailia iirc... I know a vendor who had just received about 6 earlier this year.

There is not a spec of orange on it and it is much blacker then most I have seen. Maybe Tom (Bigt) can chime in here, if he see's this thread and let us know if it is from australia or not..

There are no Wild Caught black Ocellaris coming from Australia entering the U.S. Australia has some strict regulations, especially in the Darwins.

The ones in the US are either from ORA in Florida, or TMC from England. Both sell Captive Bred specimens.

Nice fish Matt

if he bought them from. la,, they are form tmc

 

[zemuron114]

no wholesaler in the industry is getting WILD CAUGHT black clowns.. they dont enter the trade anymore. They are only found in darwin and they are illegal to collect. All black clowns in the trade are captive bred.

 

[coralseas]

if u know a wholesaler that gets live stock form quality marine. have them look it up for u.. i have seen them on the lists.. no lie

That's more BS.

They are Aquacultured.
