I Have A Puzzling Question That I Cannot Find The Answer To.

Anyone have any idea what a Platinum clown paired with Sanjay's Black Photon would sell for? I know Platinum's sell for $200 a fish. Sanjay's sell for $150 a pair (havent' found a single price yet.) But having a set like this all paired up is pretty unique! I have a chance to buy them for $135, but want to pay a good fair price for the both of us and am willing to offer more, but I don't know how much more to go.

Thanks for trying Seffie. I think I'll offer to pay $150. I jump started an old 29g I have with 5-10lbs of his lr and then he gave me 25g of his water change water off his tank. Should jump start my tank just fine. Hoping to bring them home this weekend

This will be a temp tank until I get a biocube. Looking at the biocube HQI to have the ability to put a nem in later. Kind of will be a species tank.

well the clowns are in their temp tank!!! Temp acclimated for a bit by floating the bag, then added some tank water to the bag a couple times. Released after about 45 minutes. Salinity was about identical. Made it easy!


No lights or flash for the pics and video since they were new to the tank!

I'm cycling my old rock from my old tank. Put the rock in yesterday and ammonia is at 1.2 and it's starting to smell ripe! Ammonia kit expired last August and was actually in the throw away pile...just hadn't thrown it yet. Tested it against my ro water and that did come out as 0 so I'm assuming it's still accurate. Rock water is cloudy too. I'm thinking it's going to be hard and long cycle and not quick!

Here's a pic of the cycling rock.

Some pics of Bonnie and Clyde today. They separate at night. Bonnie sleeps vertical on the back right seal. Clyde floats at the top in the back left corner!

Wow, bless them, they look so cute, you must be pleased - I expect you have breeding plans?

And the rock, bet that pongs a bit

Lovely looking fish those!...One looks like he's been badly burned and the other looks like he aint been painted yet!

burned and not painted..haha

Yea seffie, I'm hoping they will breed. I told my hubby that if they do, our basement will become grow out central!!

These guys will be set up in a tank of their very own with either a BTA or a LTA. This is a temp tank right now. Bonnie was hosting a LTA when she was at her old residence so I'm hoping she'll take to one again even though it's not their natural symbiont. There is NO WAY I'm putting a carpet nem in a 29g!!!
