Good to know Andrew!
I've 6 or 7 friends very interested in a pair of this super rare CSC's maroon (fish from hell) clowns.
I'll make a list and maybe Dom could possibly think about a trip to deliver them in person.......and drink some caipirinha, of course!

I saw one of the 6mm long captive bred blood shrimp today at Deer Park.

' Why not '

' Because it's a $%$%@ jellyfish display not a $$%@@# blood shrimp display Dave '

' Says who '

' It says #%$%@ jellyfish display on the front of the tank Dave ! '

I gave up trying to have it moved as it became obvious it was a waste of my valuable acro shopping time............

Reef Builders did an article for him haha he's been trying for a while!!

I think the jelly display is a great idea until Dave get's off his bum and gets some actual jellies!! haha

GET........ IT.......... DONE !

You don't like setting me easy challenges do you...

I buy the second most aggressive species of clowns and you want me to make them clown safe?!?!

Alex, this is like the warning signs you see at the zoo saying "Please don't feed the monkey's" well I should have to say it but please don't encourage the Andrew

he doesn't need any further encouraging haha

If you pay for the trip I'll hand deliver anything you'd like Alex

Wrangy · 10/01/2017, 01:14 AM

Speaking on NCSC (non-clown-safe-clowns) though, I managed a couple of half decent shots of the duo yesterday and some flubber just to annoy Andrew

FloformAustria · 10/01/2017, 01:41 AM

Wow looking good Dom!

Always nice to check out your thread!!

biggles · 10/01/2017, 04:34 AM

One has darker markings than the other one Dom, make sure you fix that issue before sending the first ten pairs out to the CSC beta test group.

If your mate bred blood shrimp that were afraid of the dark they wouldn't hide in caves where we don't get to see them most of the time. Also, electric blue markings would look better than just white and would make them sell like hotcakes - tell him biggles said ' you're welcome '.

I'm fairly certain that she's going to be the boss! She's slightly larger too so we'll see what happens!

hahaha I'll pass the message on to him

Thanks Alex! I've been chasing a roaps butterfly for years and years now and I'm just over the moon with him!! I couldn't be happier to finally have one in the tank! He's got a wonderful personality too!!

reefmutt · 10/02/2017, 06:35 AM

I’ve never seen a pair of Maroon clowns do a worse job of trying to dress up like sheep..
Cute and dumb!
The babies will spectacular!

I wasn't going to say anything but since you did I'll second that you need to get the markings perfect Dom. My csc need to be perfect.

They are great looking fish.

haha they're like sheep at the moment, being a cat person with a particularly "playful" Burmese I'm not afraid of when they turn into Brutus 1 and 2

I've got some plans in place and a couple of little acrylic tanks coming for copepod breeding so fingers crossed! I'm also going to try and get my hands on some of the Reed Mariculture TDO foods too as they're meant to be unbelievable for clowns

I don't think the first batch or two are going to be very spectacular but hopefully once I get the hang of it, it'll get impressive! I'm planning on just selling them through my LFS

Ahh... eermm.. shipping delays.. yeah that's it! There's been some serious shipping delays as my postie doesn't want to come near the box of very angry juveniles

martinphillip03 · 10/10/2017, 08:30 AM

Dom, It went totally over my head. You bought the clowns! Congratulations! Where are you keeping them? Could I get a picture with them in the tank?

Thank you,

Marty
