    opinions on pink skunk clowns

    Alright I need some opinions on pink skunk clowns. There dosent seem to be near as much intrest or attintion paid to these compared to the percula, maroon, tomato, or clarki. I like the though. Anyone know good idea-bad idea. Any help would be great.

    I wouldn't say there isn't much attention or popularity of the A.perideraion.
    I happen to have one and think they are wonderful fish, as clownfish go...
    Anything in particular you want to know about them?
    I know that their natural host anemone is Heteractis crispa, or the infamous sebae anemone but I had seen them accepting other anemones as well.
    Kind regards,

    Gene.

    I think I have mentioned this somewhere else, but I have a pair of pink skunks, they host in my Sinularia.
    I have found them to be very mellow, haven't had any problems with them at all. Mine don't stare at me like Gene's does, I don't know if this is good or bad.

    I just saw the naked clowns yesterday for the first time... I thought they looked... uh... sorta nekkid. Clowns should have on makeup, IHMO.

    Hmmm... now that the tank is full, I could convert the pool to saltwater...

    I saw them yesterday also, I really like the look. Inland Aquatics said they could get me pair. No pricing yet though.

    They were the same price as "regular" clowns at the LFS.

    I think I paid close to $80 for my mated pair of black oscellaris. Doesn't seem too far out of line to me.
