Mature Tomato clowns develop the black patch on their back and all of a sudden they're "cinnamon" clowns. Of course, it turns out that Melanopus varies widely over it's natural range and there are definitely geographic variations. Particular varieties are particularly nice BTW..makes me think I'm going to have 3 or 5 different melanopus pairs someday, just to have that awesome diversity preserved.

Don't know how I missed this one. There is a store near me that had a pair that I almost bought. However, one of them had a high respiration rate so I decided to pass. Unfortunately they only have one. If they were able to reestablish the pair, I might purchase them. However, they are more of a dusky orange color than the pic that was posted.

Those really are lovely. Where did you say that you got them from? Maybe I can track down their wholesaler and see if they have any more.

I figured I would chime in... I have 2 pair of A. nigripes, after reading this thread, I am pretty happy that they have the beautiful orange coloration. I was unaware until now that some are more of a brownish/tan color. http://www.uberfrags.net/...;highlight=nigripes%27
