My Oscellarus Clowns (Pics)

[MtnDewMan]

I got a wild hair and took a few pictures of my clowns, oh and threw a blenny in there for good measure

This clown pair are nearly 13 years old in my care.

Your clowns are beautiful, 13 years is a real accomplishment! I just have to ask what kind of Blenny that is, he looks very intriguing.
Thanks!

 

[David Winther]

I wouldn't think that a fish like that could live that long! Amazing!

 

[MtnDewMan]

YES ... I hope it is much longer than 13 years too !!!!

 

[SlowBoat]

What a great accomplishment! What are they going to get for their 13th birthday? I can't imagine keeping a fish happy and healthy for that long, my own son is only 10.

MtnDewMan:

How large are your clowns? Just wondering if those 13 years have brought their size above normal adult growth by any considerable amount or if they pretty much remained the same size since full maturity.

Something about that blenny makes me laugh...

thats a red spotted blenny... i think


13 years thats impressive, do they spawn?

Tangee:
I agree with H3R0, looks like Blenniella chrysospilos to me too.

Unfortunately, I found it on the floor yesterday It must have taken a leap of faith for something. Not the clowns, the blenny. I am sure I will be on the lookout for another, they are a great fish.

Thanks for the info on the blenny, I'll be on the lookout for one for sure! I'm so sorry to hear about yours MDM, I was attached to him just from staring at his picture... If I spot them somewhere I'll let you know.
