Hi, so someone is selling a pair of clownfish locally. I have a new tank that just finished cycling. I’m doing a full water change today. And planning on adding clowns first, and then wait a month before adding anything else.

Are these plain ocellaris clownfish? The top fin looks different to me. Do they look healthy? I asked for a few more images from the seller and will post as I have them.

Also, this person hasn’t had any other fish in the tank, only the clowns for a year. They say no diseases and healthy fish. Do you think I’d need to do any serious quarantine? I’m thinking of just doing a simple observation. I can’t really treat them with anything since meds are banned in Canada.

They look like a nice pair of ocellaris. Since the previous owner had them for such a long time, there's no need to quarantine.
