so my girlfriend wants me to get a black and white clown, and i want to get a snowflake clown. my LFS is selling very tiny babies of each species and i was wondering, if the two grow up together will they be compatible. i know that clowns are semi aggressive towards each other so i was not sure

They are both color morphs of basically the same breed, if I've been reading right... Yes I believe they could eventually mate

snowflakes are the a genetic mutation of the ocellaris. The black/white could be either a percula or ocellaris, just depends (onyx). Either way they should be fine. I have a bonded pair of snowflakes right now that I'm waiting on to spawn and in my DT I have a mixed pair (percula and black/white).
