what kind of breed will a black oscellaris and orange oscellaris clownfish make?

[nickolasb]

i just bought a breeding pair of oscellaris clowns one orange and one black {male black, female orange}, but i was wondering what would there offspring be? {exampleercula, snowflake?}

Well the offspring would definitely be oscellaris as well - no way that two oscellaris can produce a percula. And since both parents have the normal stripes, the majority of the babies will have normal stripes as well. Maybe you get lucky and get a misbar, but you won't accidentally get a snowflake. If you buy a snowflake, you won't be able to breed them - they are made sterile before being sold like most other designer clowns like picasso or lightning.

There is not much size difference in your clowns - are you sure they are a breeding pair? Not even sure if they are mated already.

yeah the definately are i bought them as a pair unless the shop lied the female is rather larger than the male it's just a bad pic. but i now have ich and i an treating them for that right now. im trying a freshwater dip with some ich attack then putting her in a qt

the female seems to be the only one with it but im just gonna go ahead and treat them all and just keep them in the hospital tank for about 4 weeks. i dont wanna use copper in my main tank cause i do eventually want a bunch of inverts and coral
