![]() So I just traded in my two tank-raised Ocellaris yesterday for a beautiful clarkii. I seen him in the display the day before, and knew I had to have him , so I put him on hold The LFS said it was some different type of clarkii though ( i thought i heard, african? ) the color on this guy is just amazing.. so bold and vibrant. Anyone have suggestions as to the type of clarkii? (I'll update with pics shortly!)
On to my story... I thought I read somewhere that clarkii's have a high respiration rate? as in... breathing fast (all the time?) is this true? I may be mistaken, but my clarkii still appears to be breathing fairly heavily... also, he seems quite skittish still. He will dart off to the back of the tank if I come too close/quick. He's doing the "bobbing" up and down motion quite a bit too. I just want to make sure everything is okay with him, he's too cool. The tank he was in , he was all by himself, with a giant carpet anemone. Then when I went to get him yesterday, his host was gone but he was still theo nly one in that tank.. Also, if I am not mistaken, clarkii's are a natural host to BTA's? Well, in my 20g I have three of them and he has not yet noticed one of them what's the deal ! haha Scott (copy and pasted from RC clownfish forum.. it's dead there)
