Comments from breeder Matt Pedersen:

 

"Several flaws in this fish have me wondering if I should even part with it.  There’s the spikey dorsal fin, the significant pug face, what appears to be a scarred tail where a bottom ray or two were lost and didn’t grow back, a split/twist in one of the ventral fins, and both pectoral fins appear to have bent rays too, as if they were nipped back from fighting and regrew poorly.  In terms of notable markings, the only thing of interest is that the tail stripe stops short on both sides of the fish.

 

Ordinarily, a fish like this would fall into my culling category and frankly, there’s a part of me that STILL MIGHT DO JUST THAT – this one rides the line.  As with all fish being offered, the defects are not presumed genetic at this time, and the main reason for offering these fish is to broaden the size of the F1 population going forward (ensuring genetic stability where possible)."

 

 

 

With the successful sale and delivery of the amazing "First 5" a couple of months ago and the "Next 6" last month, it is now time to release for sale the "Amazing 8" Lightning Maroon Clownfish. These are the BEST yet and some or the more perfect of the bunch.

 

After nearly 3 years of toil, trouble and extreme dedication, breeder Matt Pedersen is proud to offer to the US market the next batch of these truly remarkable fish. For those discovering this amazing animal for the first time, please click HERE to familiarize yourself with the extraordinary journey that has taken place to bring these fish to market. 

 

These next 8 will be auctioned off in individual eBay listings. Each listing will be staggered by about 12 hours to give everybody the best chance to obtain one of these remarkable fish. Three of these fish display the striking lightning pattern similar to their mother while five of these fish look similar to a normal patterned maroon clownfish except for distinctive jagged striping and the odd white dot in different places. These five siblings are the only PNG bloodline maroon clownfish on the market and the best bet for continued breeding and development of the lightning pattern. Matt has more information about this on his website, http://www.lightning-maroon-clownfish.com so be sure to check it out.
