New ORA Blood Orange Clownfish Hybrid!!

[George9]

Check this out! There's a new hybrid clown available from ORA called a blood orange clown. Its a cross between an ocellaris and a maroon clown. I think it was first available Sept 30, so it's literally brand new. I think they're pretty cool looking. I kinda want one lol. I already saw one come and go through divers den.

Theres not very much info on them, I'm not sure of temperment. Im guessing its more aggressive than the average occelaris.

To bad they didn't use a golden stripe to throw some more variation in there.

I think they did use gold stripe maroons actually. But I remember reading that they were unsure if the hybrid would show any gold yet.

I think it was just a female Maroon and male Ocelaris...IMO, it is okay, just not as strikingly different as something like Snowflakes or Lightenings. At $50 a fish, I'm not sure...

Well I love him haha. I'd just like to see an actual picture of one in a tank. The pic ORA publishes isn't so great to judge how big/ the true color under different lighting
