I have been looking for unusual clowns like the latz,picasso, and even recently the snowflake. Where are the best resources to find them? And can most clowns be captive bred?

Good luck getting any latz, there are a few of us from another site that have been watching wholesale lists and suppliers for them for about 4 months now, I would suggest contacting every supplier directly. Even if you sign up for the email notice and some store gets them in, they sellout within minutes, most lfs allow the latz they get in the be sold before arriving in the store. Picassos have been very common lately, and if you can find a breeder for snowflakes that's reliable, that would be your best bet.
 
any ORA retailer that does any kind of volume can get a pair. I've seen 6 come through our LFS.
 
I can get the Picasso's. There is now a grade A and grade B Picasso from ORA. The Grade A is the one you want. The Grade B is nice but in my opinion its a mix between Grade A and the Misbar Clown. The Grade A had the most dominate lines and fancy look.
 
I might have a couple sources for Latz if you are intrested I know a couple people with pairs and one guy trying to breed them also have sources for the other two
 
Im just wondering, I have a good frined of mine that goes through 1000's of clownfish each month as he is a wholeseller. Whats the odds that I could find a snowflake or a picasso in his batch?
 
im liking the snowflake too...but what does a latz look like...someone post a pics please...
