Picasso's and SnowFlakes clownfish club...

Chelsey · Oct 5, 2008

This pair is from ORA, but Proaquatix sells them too I believe. I also have a very young pair of picassos that have not yet developed their black. I got those two from Bonesreef. My pair of snowflakes is quite a bit larger than I had anticipated them being...they're probably 1.5-2" at least, though the female is a bit bigger.

Got a pair of young one's from ORA thrugh Seashells two weeks ago. Will take pics when they are out of quarantine and in my tank. Had trouble getting them to eat at first, but bought some of ORA's Oraglow and they started eating it as soon as I placed it in the tank. I was told that you won't get ones that look like the poster children from ORA because ORA takes the best looking ones for breeding. On a wait list for snowflakes.

It was just one that died...the female is still the original. But thanks for the condolences :)

Sorry to hear about the snowflakes. Here's my first picasso that also jumped out of the tank. They weren't known as picassos a few years ago and cost me $14.

Now they sell at $75 minimum just because of the name *I think*

Here are my other ones:

and my newest one. Love the heart shape pattern and the teardrop:

Here ya go Marvin :)

Picassos (I love the disgusted look on the helmeted one's face in the lower right corner pic):

Snowflakes:

The male (one with less white) is quite the beggar, though they're both mooches. I find this ironic because the male wouldn't eat for 10 days after I brought him home.

the other

Chelsey · Oct 21, 2008

He's a nice looking cull though, it's too bad that he's got such a bad underbite :(

Ryan, how old are your Picasso's?

RyanG · Nov 16, 2008

Not really sure, they are babies yet IMO. Probably less than a year. I just got them the day that video was uploaded. Ive had them for about a month I say, they were at the LFS for a few months,

hmmm.. I assume you get them from another reefer... they are a very nice pair.. :)

MarvinsReef · Nov 16, 2008

I forgot to post this video of my Picasso's... I'm in the process of acquiring another small Picasso with better markings... I'm looking to trade the smaller one or hopefully find a home for him locally... :)
