I found a platinum at a LFS and couldn't leave without him. They only had one but I may pair him up with a B grade Picasso. If that doesn't work out I may have to grab another. Pics don't do justice I find this fish mesmerizing in person. I had to talk the LFS into pulling him from thier display tank.

Here's the B grade picasso I hope to hook him up with.

He's about 2 inches. My guess would be a year plus.

They have not paired up yet. I thought they were but now they just tolerate each other. They fight here and there but nothing serious I'm afraid they might be too close in size.

If you are in this forum than you more than likely are a fan of clowns, so I can say the pictures do do it justice. What a great find and a cool fish to keep. I'm jealous. Hope the pairing works out for you. That would be an awsome and unique pair. Please keep us posted!
