I recently bought another clownfish and noticed that it was graded as "premium". I tried to research grading system for clowns and couldn't find much, but did come across information about the inbreeding and sale of designer clowns. Is there a good source of info anywhere about how clowns are supposed to look? Anyone want to grade my black snowflake? She's pretty ugly but I'm curious if she is normal or a "victim" of bad breeding.

Googling clownfish and going to images should give you a good idea

To me, that’s a deformity, but that pattern does look to be a grade A. Here’s the body of my Perc x Occ “Black Photon”, she isn’t what breeders class as grade A however, I class her as Grade A because she’s an amazing example of a misbar clownfish.
