Howdy,

Picked up a couple designer clowns from a LFS that was closing down. As such, they only charged me what they’d charge for a standard percula ($25).

Anyone know what variety these may be? Sorry for the potato quality pictures.

Thanks!

The black one looks like a misbar ocellaris and the other a mocha gladiator.

I know this is late but the orange one looks like a percula to me. It’s pretty much just a regular percula but it does have Picasso genes due to its little side burns
 
More specifically the black one looks a lot like a Darwin Black Ocelaris

Be careful with one being a percula and the other being an ocellaris there can be aggression between them. I would keep a good eye on them. I hope everything works ok. Does look similar to a mocha gladiator but the eye is more orange which makes me believe its a picasso percula due to the coloring of the eye and body marks. I would agree with the black darwin post. I have a premium picasso percula which does look similar to yours. Either way gorgeous fish but as stated in my post be careful with them being a percula and ocellaris. A good tell is the more orange eye is a percula while a darker black eye is ocellaris. Hope things go well good steal either way.here is my premium picasso percula.

Thank you! They’ve been best of pals so far. Hopefully that keeps up!
