Kinda odd, but something special. I wonder what other colors are out there that haven't been in captivity yet.

At first I thought they were CB, but now I don't think so. If anyone has more info, I'd love to hear it. http://www.fishtalpropagations.com/#!home/mainPage "Making captive breeding easier."   #4 mPedersen Total Posts : 3450 Scores: 29 Reward points : 1376 Joined: 2/27/2009 Location: Duluth, MN, US Status: offline MBI: 4975 Pnts MBI Site: Lake Superior Marine Aquarium Club Re:The Rose-Magenta Skunk Clownfish Sunday, October 2, 2011 11:13 PM (permalink) 0 They posted them up as WC from day 1.   #5 Fishtal Total Posts : 5467 Scores: 37 Reward points : 2905 Joined: 8/31/2006 Location: Waterford, MI, US Status: offline MBI: 585 Pnts MBI Site: MarineLife Aquarium Society of Michigan Re:The Rose-Magenta Skunk Clownfish Sunday, October 2, 2011 11:18 PM (permalink) 0 I got that now.

I would have to see them in person as well.  One man's pink may be another's magenta. That said, I think the skunk clowns are beautiful, and deserve better than their cheap price.   #7 EasterEggs Total Posts : 1946 Scores: 19 Reward points : 735 Joined: 9/22/2011 Location: Saskatoon, SK, CA Status: offline MBI: 590 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Breeding Initiative (MBI) Re:The Rose-Magenta Skunk Clownfish Monday, October 3, 2011 9:58 AM (permalink) 0 Would astaxanthin or other color enhancing foods possibly cause a pink fish to become "rose-magenta"?   Originally Posted by KathyL I think the skunk clowns are beautiful, and deserve better than their cheap price.   I agree Kathy!  I don't know why they aren't more popular.   #8 GreshamH Total Posts : 757 Scores: 16 Reward points : 600 Joined: 4/27/2011 Location: SF Bay Area, CA Status: offline MBI: 0 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Breeding Initiative (MBI) Re:The Rose-Magenta Skunk Clownfish Monday, October 3, 2011 12:26 PM (permalink) 0 I doubt its a pumping of astaxanthin levels.   FWIW astaxanthin is not a food, its a carotenoid.  You add stuff high in astaxanthin but you don't add it.   #9 Duck Total Posts : 466 Scores: 8 Reward points : 465 Joined: 12/14/2010 Location: Barrow in Furness, Cumberland Status: offline MBI: 760 Pnts MBI Site: Marinefish-uk.co.uk Re:The Rose-Magenta Skunk Clownfish Monday, October 3, 2011 3:42 PM (permalink) 0 I did ask them if they would divulge the capture location.....Of course the answer was no! I am scepticle of the colouration and would also like to see them personally. Fat chance of that!   #10 mPedersen Total Posts : 3450 Scores: 29 Reward points : 1376 Joined: 2/27/2009 Location: Duluth, MN, US Status: offline MBI: 4975 Pnts MBI Site: Lake Superior Marine Aquarium Club Re:The Rose-Magenta Skunk Clownfish Monday, October 3, 2011 6:20 PM (permalink) 0 Supposedly John and Sissy got 'em...if that's the case then hopefully next time I'm out their way I can sneak a peak.   #11 rgrking Total Posts : 712 Scores: 22 Reward points : 446 Joined: 4/8/2011 Location: Sullivan, MO, US Status: offline MBI: 305 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Aquarium Societies of North America Re:The Rose-Magenta Skunk Clownfish Monday, October 3, 2011 10:06 PM (permalink) 0 here is who bought them http://reefimports.com   They have it on their FB page  http://www.facebook.com/p...ery-Co/152349664836122 RLTW 180 Gallon Mixed Reef Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send?
