Can't nail down what this clownfish is. Any suggestions?

Hard to say with young ones from the clarkii complex. It could be a young bicinctus, but also one of the many species lumped together as clarkii. Looks like a wild caught.

Where did you find it, Neptune? Once in a while they get wild clowns from wholesalers in L.A., especially from Africa. Just a few weeks ago they had allardis.

Yeah @ Neptune. They have some that look like Allardis but yet are different

You can tell it's wild caught... no underbite or slanted forehead. Nice looking clown!

I had a look at it today when I went there to get water.
Some of its tank mates are sebae and some other look like allardi. Given that it's the smallest of the non sebae, it could very well be the same as the "allardi", just a little less colored up yet.
Though I would be careful with those - they all looked and behaved like they were coming down with something.
