Deb, they are either percula or ocellaris, the jury is out on which exactly and will probably be out for a long time, as I don't really feel like taking the time to count spines. They are definently not saddlebacks (checked photos on the web before I got them to make sure). I still haven't got a for-sure answer on whether both black percs and black oces exist, or just one of the two. One person on RC chat said he's talked to ORA about it, and they said only percs exist, then another guy piped up saying he has a mating pair of black oces. So go figure. No one seems to know for sure. They were sold to me as percs, and are apparently wild-caught. I would have preferred tank-bred, but these guys were there, in good health, and I'd already decided to do a black clownfish pair. I would have liked pure black and white, one of mine has a bit of gray on the nose and the other has bright orange/yellow on the nose and pec fins. They're happily poking around in a rather cloudy tank right now, as I've been doing battle with hair algae all evening (gee I love the taste of salt water, darn siphons).
