they are the ones in the picture i posted

So ok I looked it up and it seems my female is a mocha gladiator they grow to be very pretty!!! But can u identify my male is it a blood orange cuz it's definitely a hybrid and when I looked up juvy blood oranges they looked almost exactly like mine

 

[meir]

So I'm thinking either blood orange or citron but being that when I bought them as a perc pair but I saw on the bag oce and the female turns out to be an ocellaris I'm Inclined to believe that he's a BO cuz the citron is a maroon-perc pair while a BO is a maroon-ocellaris pair

The male i believe is a tangerine clownfish

The male i believe is a tangerine clownfish

He's way pinker than that and his stripes are way thinner

 

[evan-beachouse-45]

He's pretty light for a blood orange and he has black stripes on his white stripes. Could just be a baby in ocellaris really. I have seen some really pale pink ocellaris clowns. You won't really know for a while until he ages

Every clownfish has a different genetic profile. That is how designer clownfish came about, they saw some with genetic mutations and bred them to make Picasso and snowflake, etc and your clown could be an ocellaris with a different strip pattern. It could be something else but usually a store won't mistake them too bad, they want their money and if they could sell it as a designer they would. That's just my opinion.

 

[evan-beachouse-45]

It could be anything tho.

 

[meir]

I didn't buy them from a store I had them special ordered and I was told that I got captive bred perculas clowns so about mistaking them that bad if these are really Ocellaris then they made a big mistake because I was told that they were percula

 

[evan-beachouse-45]

Captive bred perculas also can be pale.

 

[meir]

It's not pale tho it's pink I've seen pale it's not pale
