My pair of Black Onyx True Percula Clownfish!

ihatter · 11/17/2004, 06:53 PM

Well tonight was the night I put in my order! I purchased a pair of Black Onyx true percula clowns from Rod Buehler, the king of Black Onyx true percs! He is one of THE nicest guys in the aquarium biz and was very detailed in his descriptions of everything! I can't thank him enough!

I will have pics of the lil guys on friday when they arrive! Lookout!!

I am very excited to share them with all of you!

Congradulations, hopefully they do well for you and make tons of babies.
Peace

ihatter, how does one get in touch with Rod? Does he have a web site that I can go to? I am putting together a 100G tank and would like to have a pair of Onyx clowns. Please let me know how I can get in touch with him.

PM him

AP7x · 11/18/2004, 04:25 PM

how much would a pair go for?

how bout singles?

Or are they all different

Thanks =D

ihatter · 11/19/2004, 07:22 AM

THEY ARE CURRENTLY IN TRANSIT!!!! IM SO EXCITED!!!!!!

AP7X it completely depends who you buy from. I would say a little under 100 bucks per fish is a reasonable estimate with shipping.

PM him

Thanks a lot casbarian. I have sent him a PM so that I can start putting money aside. That way I will have the money so when my 100G tank cycles I can order a pair from him.

ihatter could you post some pics when your Onyx clowns get in. I would love to see the pics of them.

Dlckwood · 11/19/2004, 01:59 PM

Yes, pictures! I need my clown fill for the day.

ihatter · 11/19/2004, 03:45 PM

Ok well the lil guys are in the tank today! They hosted my RBTA immediatly!!!! They still have there juvie color pattern, they are TINY TINY!!! Under an inch! Maybe 1/4 an inch, i will try and get pics up tonight!

meagan_myers · 11/29/2004, 04:13 PM

I am sooooooo jealous!! I have to get mine soon. I am still waiting for the LFS to get a nice green with purple base BTA.

casbarian · 11/29/2004, 06:38 PM

ihatter where are the pics?

Here's the latest color development on mine. Dorsal is finally all black!

Really cool looking fish

OCDP · 11/29/2004, 07:57 PM

Wowzers... those fish are beautiful... as well as the anemone.. those are from Rob, correct?

casbarian · 11/29/2004, 08:13 PM

Thanks, and yes from Rod.

OCDP · 11/29/2004, 08:19 PM

Wow.. I think I am going to give him a PM right now. I currently have 2 CB Ocellairs that I would like to sell.. not because I don't like them .. but I just much prefer True Perc's.. and those are amazing clowns.

Damn the LFS and their mis-labelling.

meagan_myers · 11/30/2004, 12:12 AM

I may just have to get my pair now!! I don't know how much longer I can wait.

Any pics ihatter??

Tigahboy · 11/30/2004, 11:03 AM

AMAZING...i am jealous. what a pair!

MarksReef · 11/30/2004, 11:12 AM

I wish I was better at taking pic's.

R33f3r · 11/30/2004, 11:25 AM

Very nice! How old are they?

Those appear to be black ocellaris clowns. A cute pair anyways!

Nice pic. Your last one with the two in the RBTA (before the unfortunate incident) is my wallpaper!!

casbarian · 11/30/2004, 01:38 PM

Thanks. Yeah, I get pi$$ed every time I think of that one jumping out. Rod's got a bunch of tiny ones I'm going to wait to grow up a little, before I buy a new one. I suppose I should take down my avatar for a newer one without the other.

meagan_myers · 11/30/2004, 02:38 PM

That is sad. Soon you will be able to get the lonely fish a new buddy.
I am at the last of my patience. I don't think I can resist them anymore. I have been using your pic as my surrogate

OCDP · 11/30/2004, 02:58 PM

Haha I know what you mean meagan.. I drool over them too :P

That really sucks that one jumped out... are you going to cover the tank this time? It's weird.. something must have spooked him..
