Amphiprion Barberi - Sunday, September 4, 2011 4:14 PM

Has anyone kept these fish?
I have seen a pair in my local LFS that I am sure are Barberi but male is quite young and has a thin black line down the stripe. Just wondered if this dissapeared with age? They are both a deep orange colour with no darkening like Frenatus and certified Fiji captured but were listed as Rubrocinctus which they were thought to be until reclassified in 2008.

I don't have any photo's before you ask!

Went to the shop today and got a pick. Probably the brightest orange I have ever seen on a fish! Sorry it's only my camera phone, will get a better shot at the weekend.
