I was tempted to order one as well, but the last one I got of those needed treatment and bleached completely. So I rather passed and wait until AC gets them again..

I’ll have QT ready and Cipro. There’s no way the gig is going in the tank near Ritteri unless I’m absolutely positive it’s healthy. |

I paired the two males from Pairs 1 & 2.
I successfully paired them in a tank that was new to both of them. Prior to that I introduced the smaller male to the larger one where he was already established and the latter did not like the former one bit. As I moved them both to a new setting they began to accept each other. After 3 weeks of pairing I moved them back to the main tank where they share the Ritteri anemone. However, the smaller male is only allowed there at night to sleep. |

This clown has a Ritteri anemone in the tank but he chose a Bounce Mushroom as an alternate host! He needs to move!

He wants a gigantea and the bounce is closer to that than the magnifica.
I actually noticed that some percula, especially the ones with lots of black, are very insistent on a gigantea. Before they accept any other anemone, even others that are natural hosts for percula, they rather cozy up with mushrooms, green star polyps, and the like.

That’s tough. I could get them a second magnifica today that’s twice the size of the current one but no gigantea around.

Ok, things are getting out of control. He's loving the mushroom harder tonight. If this continues I might have to move things around.

That bounce is getting big. Time to take out the razor blade.
That is a very nice pair.

My main pair has been living in their magnifica for about 20 days and I have not noticed any loss in black color...yet. I also added two wrasses to my tank several days ago. Since then the smaller clown hangs out by overflow area during the day and sleeps in the anemone at night. He has stopped treating the bounce mushroom as a host anemone.
Finally, the anemone has grown a little bit. Its metallic green oral disc is unique and beautiful. I have not seen many/any others of its kind in that color scheme. My third wild Onyx has paired with a small ORA bred Ocellaris clownfish. Last edited by CoralsAddiction; 10/09/2019 at 02:17 AM. |

Violet Sea in San Jose had wild GBR percula from Australia recently, though those are not onyx and always have just thin black borders. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

Thank you TRower. I frequent those stores quite a bit and its hit and miss. I saw the last batch from Bali- and kick myself for not getting some of them.. 50 buck each. Since then, its been only ORA or SR stuff in the bigger stores. Not really that interested in those...
Something about a wild specimen that is completely beautiful and strong... Ill keep looking but I am also getting into breeding. I have a few pair already but wanted to add a Wild Onyx into the mix... Madhu does get a lot of fish and last time he only had wild occelaris.. his staff could not tell the difference - must be newbies. Ill keep a look out.... the ones Rob had at Neptune were really nice if not really onyx.. |

Just picked up this pair from aquatic collection, both lost their mates so snagged them and put them together
The yellow one has a messed up small tail. Like a stubby almost. The black one is perfect. I think c quest perhaps? Anyhow can someone tell me more about this yellow one? Looks like wild based on wild pattern. It has personality and felt a little connected to this poor fella. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
