Watched it again on a bigger screen. No, they are not chrysogaster. Gasters always have three bars, juvis and adults.

Hello Friends. I would like to say that I welcome, value and respect everyones opinion when it comes to help with Amphiprion identification. There are many more species of Amphiprion than those described. I love going to the importers and "cherry pick" what's called in the trade "contaminant" specimens. Here's a typical example: if you look closely at a tank filled with hundreds of feeder guppies from Trinidad, you will almost alway find a few Poecilia picta mixed in. This happens with clownfish also. I've found A. sebae and A. allardi mixed in with A. clarkii on several occations.
I'm not in the business of reselling. I love clownfish and breeding clownfish and as I've said in other posts, my goal is to propagate perfect CB fish. Of the many hundreds of A.percula that I've raised none have been perfect. NOT ONE! This is extremely frustrating to me as I've bred and raised over a hundred species of fresh water fish and culling is seldom needed. Well, this is a topic for a separate post. Thanks again.

while a bit younger, these are juvenile A. chrysogaster. there are several distinct differences between this species and the yellow fish in the last video.

Here my clarkii pairing up. The big one is about 3yrs old n just finally got the small one last week n they stopped fight n swimming together now. I like these guys cause they swim around a lot, not just stay in one area. As they mature the colors get darker n brighter.
