The names clownfish are given are just to describe their markings
Call them tinkerbell if you want
They are all either Percs. Occs, or Perc-Occs... they just look different through selective breeding...I love this game

[Mr Cob]

very true Mike... but I like the look of the black ice ones and was hopeful that my white paired up with my black could yield some. Not so hopeful now but I'm sure they will still make for some cool offspring.

I'm down for a couple of whatever you come up with

[Texreefer]

What I really like about all this is that we are all having conversation over Captive raised Fish.... Hobbyists are now able to breed their own and come up with variations that are more desirable than what can be wild caught..

yeah thats what i like about it and i enjoy breeding designer clownfish, rewarding experience at the 4th month.. really all im doing is trying to get facts out there and dont want to seem like im mister know it all but i have been breeding fish for over 10years, so i kinda know my stuff. breeders and wannabe breeders are 2 differnet things....like i said good luck on the breeding and you should come out with some nice smorecularis out of that darwin and platnium and i would be willing to trade some babies with my picassnows to get a better gene pool and another hybrid designer clownfish produced on my list...

[Mr Cob]

right on!

So.. smores refers to for "darwin x normal orange oc" and percularis is "oc x perc". So what exactly defines smorecularis?

Hey Rob, is your Picasso pair from babies of my babies? Awe! Where did they come from?

Your other pair looks very beautiful together too! I wouldn't split them up.

There is so much inconsistency in what different varieties / color variations are called that it is hard to even communicate what anyone is raising or getting for their money. Apples are compared to tangerinos. Kinda sad really.

Best of luck in whatever you decide. Your kids will have blast watching the little baby fish grow.

smorecularis is really just a name that a guy came up with that bred a darwin occellaris and a platnium percula.. in the clownfish world one breeds what he wants and if not yet done by another breeder well they name there own breed that they create... jonathan aka fisheyeservices has named his offspring from a darwin and a snowflake smores, but they were also known from ora as black ice... you can name them what you want , but if they've already been named before well it's best to keep them the same name so us breeders know whats what....

thx clownfishgems

Lorraine, yes the semi-picasso pair are from you.. I got them from Harish, he got them from you around the same time we bought that lot of platinums from you as MCC. The kids have been so funny with watching the pairs fight..the 30g IM tank is low and near their eye sight so they have been watching them duke it out. Pretty funny. Thanks for the blessing. Glad I got to see your operation first hand when you were in full swing of rearing and appreciate that you documented so much of it. Thanks. Good to hear from you.
