Trying to learn how to grade my frostbite clownfish pair.

[Blvck.xvii]

Hey everyone! I’m new to r2r and I need help with figuring out how to determine what “grade” my pair of frostbite clownfish are or is? Well I got the pair from a relative who also gave me the tank. Ive always wanted a fish tank being salt water since I was young. So any knowledge given is truly grateful! As well thankyou for your time!

p.s. these are the best pictures I could get of them.

First off Welcome to R2R!!! Those look like a health pair of clowns with nice patterns. Not sure about what grade but if it were me to grade them I’d say an A+ nice pair!

Welcome! I didn't realize clowns got graded...

What's their favorite subject?! (Sorry, couldn't resist)

Home schooling during the pandemic is really starting to get out of hand!

Haha already loving R2R!!
You guys are awesome! I guess I should’ve said, I’m trying to determine which ones do I have, as in “flurry”, “SubZero”, “Extreme”, Chilled”, “Frozen”.

What i learned when i got mine is there are 4 grades.
Flurry- mostly white
Chilled- 1-2 spots either side
Frozen- 2-10 spots either side
Sub zero- 10 spots or more on either side spread above and below the lateral line
This is mostly just a guide. I consider mine to be sub zero.

Here is a good article on grading them... http://miniwaters.fish/shop/saltwat...-ocellaris-frostbite-clownfish-subzero-grade/

However the reference above is pretty good.

This is a subzero frostbite.

Mine has been flunking out for about 6 months now! She finally rewarded me by laying her first eggs! Wyoming white female (F for fangs) Black Phantom male (F because he hangs around her)
@Katrina71 I like your grading system!

 

[Mattiejay6]

Your one looks like a flurry and the other a standard (frozen)

I look into that as well. Thanks!
