Designer clowns are so personal it is hard to comment on their appearance. But I was stunned to see that these are selling for $225. Seems like a lot of money for these fish, but others can chime in.

At the end of the day, if you are happy with them that's what counts. But I wouldn't spend that kind of money for these. But I have a pretty strong bias and don't really care for the white clowns.
I have to say, I would pass on that second fish, especially for the price mentioned. His swimming behavior looks very haphazard. He looks healthy and active enough, but the way he's kind of pitching around and bumping against the bottom instead of bobbing around like a normal clownfish (compare him to the first one) would make me leery.
