Got designer clownfish, what exactly are they?

[jellyfish123]

Hey all, got myself a pair of designer clownfish! Can someone tell me what clowns they are? I just picked the two I liked the most. No idea what industry marketing name is. Also taking name suggestion and ideas! Made a YouTube short!

Frost Bite....something something. Could be Bullet Holes.

Go to ORA clown fish and check out their stock for a match.

Wow that's a helpful list thank you. They look like frostbites from the list! Currently we just call them black cow patch and orange cow patch lol

Where did you get them from?

Whatever they are, they are cuties for sure!

The orange one honestly looks like a percula while the black is ocellaris, but they've been crossed so many times, especially in the creating of designer clowns, so it's really a moot point. IDK what the name for a percula with a frostbite pattern would be, but absolutely beautiful fish!

I got them from a breeder here in Australia called Coastal Clownfish. They were really helpful the first week giving me tips on how to get them to eat too!

Oh I see! Relieved to know they can pair and cross breed even. Not that I'll breed but just need them to be peaceful haha. I picked those two from a tank full of "Mocha Storms" i believe. Didn't like how those looked. Here's the tank they were from!

Interesting! The fish you have don’t look like mocha storms. But there could have been a few from another batch mixed into that tank!

Oh no they're not. I meant the breeder brought mocha storms mostly for sale and a few others mixed in. I had to pick around the mocha storms to get the ones i wanted! Mocha storms are considered more expensive apparently but I just didn't like them. At the frag show I was, he was selling any designer for $100 each and most people preferred the mocha storms just because they were more expensive. I went with the ones I found prettier instead.

Gotcha!! I’m with you on the storms- I like most of the other designer morphs more. Good picks!!
