My wife has decided that nothing but a pair of platinum clowns will do and I'm inclined to oblige her. :)

I would love a pair of domino clowns. Ones that all full black with no orange face and a spot on each side.

I can't think of one I've really wanted and not been able to find. There are some that are hard to find but I'm not really that interested... like A. omaninsis.

'gasters can range from looking like clarkiis to looking like something in the saddleback complex. I prefer the latter sort.

A. fuscocaudatus - It's not the cost that is the problem, it's the lack of availability. But I can still dream!!!

I like my plain old black and white Australian clowns w/ the orange nose...however I think that goes away as they age.

I love my onyx. Always used to drool over them online and didn't have the pleasure of meeting one in person until I unwrapped the box she was sent in. She did not disappoint! :)

I recently bit the bullet and bought a pair of Sustained Aquatics Fancy Snowflake Clowns. I just loved their colors. I paced and fretted over the price for a while but decided they were what I wanted. I paid $150 for the pair.

Sorry pics are slightly out of focus, Im not the best photographer

Same here. They are probably my dream fish. Sadly, they're not very common at all.

A. Nigripes. The few times I've seen them I've had no room for more clowns.

My wife wanted Platinums, so we have that as well. But I just saw a pair of Wyoming Whites locally last night and they just blow the Platinums right out of the water. I don't know if it's worth every dollar you have to pay for Wyoming Whites, but they are sure nice!
Very nice pair , good p/u.

Solomon Island chrysopterus. They're not unobtainable but everytime I have shipped them in they died within 3 days. I love their black pelvic pins and vibrant colors.

I have tried at the store to get these to survive as well, with absolutely no luck. They cannot handle shipping. Which we could figure out a cure for it, though.
