I thought the only true way to ident had to with the number of bones in their dorsal or something.

My Ocellaris have orange rings.

This is the first time I have heard this.


I have heard many folks keeping percs and oc together... Among other clowns ( In bigger tanks )

Have even heard of paired oc/perc.

The best way to tell the difference between the 2 is the eyes. Both have black centres to the eyes. Percula's outside of the eyes are then orange, the Occelaris outside are merky orangish black/brown.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
