This one. I was curious and searched around but could not see any sellers. Anyone actually had one of these? If so, what were they like? Did they seem deformed like with a bent spine or something, or was it more like missing a few bones or something?

P.S. Not looking to buy one, I am good with my two at the moment. Just curious.
 
I can’t help with the specific question but I can bump the thread to see if we can get any answers for you
 
I saw one at my local fish store, it looked like it was squished together, but no abnormal spine or deformation from what I saw

Oh that's cool. Did you reckon it looked 'nice'? Or the squished-ness just looks off?
 
I think it's a combination of missing vertebrae and kinked spine. You can see the kink in the ORA photo--it's causing the dorsal fin (the top fin) to lean forward versus on a normal clownfish where the dorsal starts in a more perpendicular position.
