I am about ready to start stocking my NC24. It has been cycling since 2/13 and all seems to be in check. Only inhabitants now are a CUC and a couple LR hitchhikers.

I am continually browsing over the types of clownfish but just can't decide which ones to get. In my BC14 I have 2 false misbar percs, one bright orange and another more dull orange. They are both beautiful fish but I want something with a little more appeal.

I have been thinking of getting some black and white percs, but all I can find for sale are False B&W, are there true B&W percs? If so anyone know an online retailer who has them?

I was also looking at the regular true percs. In comparison to my current false misbars these fish seem to have more color and like my gf said, almost looks like they are wearing a jacket, lol.

The third fish I want to add is a six line wrasse, I saw one in friends reef tank and it was an awesome fish. I would probably add 3 total for now and maybe top it off with a fourth later on if these fish do well. And I think for would be around the limit for a NC24, dont you think?

Anyway, I'll stop the rambling here. Just looking for a little insight into getting some clownfish. Any pros or cons about the fish I mentioned. Do or don'ts, you get the point. Thanks!

I don't know of any True Percs that are B&W.

From what I've read and/or heard Onxy are True Percs other than the fact as they mature their body becomes very dark black. There are still hints of orange here and there. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes, Onyx are True Percs, but aren't B&W, as you mentioned, just heavier black variants on the traditional black/orange Perc.
