Who'd pay $500 for them?? :bigeyes2:

 

[noodleman]

i wouldn't pay that much for them....they kinda freak me out

 

[Dmitry]

Yeah, I know. They look bleached!

 

[bad coffee]

and the worse thing is you can't be sure their babies will look like that! If I bought them I'd be begging them to breed!

they freak me out also, mutant clowns :bigeyes2:

I feel like they should have pink eyes too!
Definitely on the freaky side.

The sad part is they are most likely from the same batch of fry, which to me means that they'd have to inbreed to have babies. Inbred equates to weakening of the species, in my understanding.
Now if they were the same mutant species from different parents, then that would be cool.

I'm going to keep my $500 in my pocket, thank you.

They're called Snowflake Clowns and they have been for sale a # of times on RC.They have shown up in a shops in NJ & PA and have been for sale at Liveaquia before, ORA also has had them. They where believed to come first from England but are actually from the wild. It's also not hard to get all different kinds of color patterns from breeding Clowns an actually a lot of different color patterns do exist in the wild and evey so often a couple show up for sale some where.

The links below tell a lot about the fish, from where it comes from to people trying to breed them.

They usually go for $300-$500.
