Alan Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 There was a guy in Morrinsville that collected CL's that had these deformities. I think he thought they were rare as he use to pay silly prices to obtain them. They take a long time to mature, and when you see a PAIR of them, there is no mistaking the sex. Boys slim, females rotund. Alan 104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 I've never seen my clowns nip at other fish. Sometimes they'll go and clean along their sides and heads though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
