Albino Tangerine Clownfish

rewlee · Jan 26, 2013

Anyone know anything about these? I see they have basically no black and red eyes. I have just purchased one, as I looked around I saw prices 100+ and decided for 60 it was a good deal. Maybe I should have done more research, but i have one clown, and hope they will pair up.

Do they have any issues? Sight or other health issues?

Look forward to learn more about this little be yut!

Unfortunately I don't know much about them, but their gorgeous little clowns. Hope others can chime in with some info.

Where you get him? Been looking for a pair or one after sandy.

It was a WYSISYG at Saltwaterfish. And I do not think they have any more :( I have never seen them before so I couldnt help with a better place to get them.

And thanks pop I think so as well!

I just bought one today from one of my lfs for $55 and it is a misbar. They are considered an albino lacking the ability to create melanin which causes the black markings on most clownfish. I looked around on the web and found prices anywhere from 99 to 200 dollars and none of these were misbars. Here is a pic of mine with the black ice that i am trying to pair it with.

looks great! I have yet to see a misbar. are you going to try to breed, cause those two would be quite interesting haha. Mine gets here tomorrow, so I will throw up some pics when he arrives. I finally found a good article on them talking about their albino traits, but not a "True albino." hope you enjoy the lil dude!

Well he finally arrived, after a good bit of delays due to this weather. He looks good and is acclimating, very active and alert right out of the box. Also got my TINY, I mean TINY Flame Angel. He is also looking very alert. Will get some pictures after they acclimate, and get in there. Also got a few corals, will show those off when they are acclimated as well
