    I've been eye-balling iBluewater's clownfish for a couple of years now, and I finally took the plunge on a pair of their mature onyx clowns. USPS messed up the shipping and got them here a day late, but iBluewater packed them so well that they weren't phased. The fish are perfect specimens with exactly the markings that I would look for in an onyx.

    Just wanted to drop a comment to thank you guys for going the extra mile in getting these awesome little fish to me.

    Gorgeous. You are psyched Mike!
    I can only imagine how gut wrenching the day late scenario was. Glad it worked out!

    I wish I had the patience for it. I do know a local breeder that would be happy to take the eggs if they lay though.

    Do you by any chance know if they are a wild pair?

    They certainly look stout and healthy.

    Picasso are my fave with Onyx a very close second.
