It is always a good time getting to pick out which clownfish you want! I remember going back and forth for weeks, before ultimately deciding on a pair of ORA orange storms clowns. Two years later and I am still pleased with my decision!

However the premium Davinci/Gladiator has really caught my attention, and will probably go with a pair of them in the future. Good luck - have fun!

My favorite (due to a very unique swim-pattern!) are Saddleback Clownfish; but a 20 gallon would be too small for even one. I've had them cover every inch of a 150-gallon tank, and tell a few Tangs what they thought of them. 😜 (But like someone already mentioned-- get what you will really like... hopefully it will be a 20-year relationship!)

My little boy and I got the oportunity to each choose our pic of the litter from 3 broods of orange, black, and mocha storms from wholesaler, The Clownfish Company, at a show.

He picked an orange stormand i picked a dark mocha storm. They are healthy and stunning. Never thought I’d go designer, i have owned wild caught percs before.

I really love mine.

These particular storms look amazing imo. I don’t think you could go wrong with onyx, picasso, true perc.

Some of the prettiest clowns i can recall seeing were pink wild caught skunks during the mid 2000s. You would want more tank volume for them though.

I LOVE white clownfish. I had a pair of Miami White Clownfish in my first tank and thought they were the coolest little fish. They looked like they had little masks on. 😍

I have had "normal" Clownfish in my previous tanks and they were great. With the new tank I just happened to visit my closest Petco 6 weeks ago (I haven't been there in years) and they had two small Black Storms.

I bought both and they were the first fish I added to my tank. They are about 1 1/4" and are so cute.

The mocha storm clowns look great imo. At my lfs they were $120-160 each, but for my first fish in my first saltwater tank, I couldn’t justify the cost.
