Clarki Clownfish

[lazidog]

I have had a variety of clowns but never a Clarki, my LFS has some ORA Clarki clowns that have great coloration like the one in this pic. Anyone have experience with these from ORA, want to know if their coloration will change greatly?

I believe they turn darker as they mature:

Anyone actually have any?

I used to have a pair. The female & male will darken more so (especially female) as they mature.

I had this pair for a bit. Poor pics, but the tank was a mess @ the time! Female was the larger/darker of the two.

Lbrdsoxfan your past clownfish look similar to mine.​

Mine from the time I got them were always pretty dark. The larger one, whom is named Meatball, lived on his own for approximately one year. I introduced his mate, Katheo, ten months ago and they have taken to each other well.​

It was a rough introduction at first and they chased each other a lot, but overtime this period gradually wore off. I think they are now paired. I'm curious which one is female/male or if they are both the same gender.

I've included some tank pics below. I used to have an anemone for over a year (which they loved!!) but it didn't make it unfortunately. I'm not sure if this is due to changes in my water chemistry, flow or perhaps the clowns rough housing it too much. In the future I'd love to get them another anemone.

Does anyone else have experience with Clarki's?
