herranton Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 This should probably go in identification or in the fish subforum, but no one ever reads those. I have been out of the hobby for a long time now, so my identification skills aren't what they used to be, but is this the most awesome clownfish ever? https://youtu.be/_Tuul8XaT_Y?t=5m23s (the link is a sailing vlog, but they dive every once on awhile. The clown is at 5:24 to 5:28. I started it a second early...Or maybe I'm wrong and it isn't a clown. But it sure is pretty, lol. Link to comment
CronicReefer Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 That looks like a trigger fish to me. Definitely not a clown. Still an awesome fish though. Link to comment
RayWhisperer Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 It's a spotted sweetlips. They get about 2 feet long, so don't go out and buy one for your tank. Link to comment
herranton Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 It does the wiggly wiggly like a clown and and has the stripes. (I totally ripped off this photo, the source is at the top of the image). I can't see trigger fish in it anywhere. It's a spotted sweetlips. They get about 2 feet long, so don't go out and buy one for your tank. One? ONE? I have two on order for my pico-jar in the Jarquarium challenge. Link to comment
