The guy who originally collected these on the MOFIB forum. It was amazingly detailed from the process he had to go through to get permission, the hostility he got from locals when he arrived and to the journal of the actual collection and breeding setups.

You can find it here http://www.marinebreeder.org/

I guess to a collector anything can be golden but I honestly can't understand the appeal. Just looks like a black and white clownfish to me. Man I'm such a cheapskate fuddle-duddle. :lol:

Now if I can just find some black paint that'll stick to my Tomato Clown I'll be able to afford a skimmer that actually works! :lol:

Nope, these are not from US but from Australia.

I don't think I would pay that much money for used fish.

I loved this part...

"Sales Terms Requested by Supplier: Fish cannot be sold to Commerical Breeders or Known Breeding Operations"

Goodness...we wouldn't want that to happen! Captive Breeding might bring the price down.

Doesn't say anything about trading them. :lol:
