As the title says, what are the naturally occurring designer mutations for different Clownfish species? And which ones are only found in captivity? I’ve slightly changed my stance to the point where I’m willing to consider Clowns that are “designer” varieties but only if they’re derived from naturally occurring patterns in the wild.
What’s the science behind these patterns? Are they like recessive genes found in humans? Is it possible for say, two typical Ocellaris or Percula Clowns or Maroon Clowns to produce designer patterned offspring because one or both parents carry these recessive genes tracing back to their wild ancestors?
