You can look at ORA's website for pictures and I can try to get pictures of the one's in stock. They are the same species and should look very similar to each other. The ORA are tank raised and the other ones are wild caught.

Just let me know which ones you want.

Tim,

PM sent regarding the Picasso clowns!~ :D

tim how much are they going to coast when you can get them ...the picasso clowns that is

Here is an email from ORA. I asked about the Picaso clowns and here is the email response:
"Ok, so as for your Picasso question... We have 2 "grades" of picassos; "A" (like the picture on the webpage) and "B" or semi-picassos which come from the same broodstock pairs but do not have the complete tail bar or connecting bars. There is a considerable price difference between these fish as well. We almost always have the semi-picassos available however the full "A" grades are very limited and we aren't expecting any for at least 2 weeks (probably more like a month). They are just too small to ship right now. We have a limit of 2 "A" grades and 4 "B" grades per customer."

So the 2 Type A are already spoken for. Does anyone want the 4 type B clowns?

They haven't published the price for these yet as soon as I know I will let you know.

if i get them i want the type "A" and would like to know a price ..im not getting any now but would like to know for the future..and if i do i will be ordering other stuff as well so it will be worth it ;)

kool

You are on the list it might be a while though. But I will keep you informed.

Thanks,

Tim

oh yeah when you do get them i want a pair not just one so let everyone get theres first

:yay: for Picasso's!!~


Just some "FYI" on the "Type B" Picasso's. I've seen some of them and they are just as awesome as the "Type A" Picasso's, although they don't have the tail stripe. The middle bar is just as "puzzle-piece" looking as the others. :thumbs:

ORA also has naked clowns (ocellaris) that are absolutely adorable as well! Have they said anything about them being available, Tim? :fish:

BTW.... awesome bonus deals you are offering!! :up:

If you all are curious, this thread from RC has pics of the granulosa, nathans deepwater and the enchinata. Really nice pieces...wonder how big the frags are.

Here is a quote from ORA website:
"ORA is now producing the best, most diverse and healthy stony coral fragments in the aquarium industry. ORA coral frags (fragments) are well encrusted to the base on which they are grown. They are never sold until they are fully matured as individual coral colonies. Our corals are true hobbyist frags, designed to be grown-out in the home aquarium. They range in size from 2- 4 inches, and are mounted on 1/2" inch diameter plastic plugs. ORA frags are truly aquacultured specimens, 6 or 7 generations removed from the original wild colonies. No tissue or skeleton of wild brood-stock corals remain."

You can check out pictures here as well (http://www.orafarm.com/corals.html)

Here is more information on the Clams (http://www.orafarm.com/clams.html)

Do they have any of the naked ones in stock? How much?

Do you get to see pictures of the clams before you get them? If they are as pretty as the pics I want one!

The list I posted is all that is currently available.

No I don't get to see pictures and choose. I get what I get. I can request certain colors. Asides, ORA wouldn't be as well known or sought after if they sold bad quality.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Thanks,

Tim

Thanks for the info. :up:

Tim, I'll still take those 2 Picasso's!~ :D

Inbred or not, I'll still love them as if they were the most genetically healthy fish in the world!~ :fish:

.... this is my preference of fish right now and is what I want. All I can do is hope for the best!

(I've moved all the posts concerning the desiner breeding to this thread (http://www.atlantareefclub.org/forums/showthread.php?t=11676) for further discussion)

I have some preorders for this shipment. Please contact me by Sunday night to add your name to the reserved list. :D

Last Day to take advantage of the preorders. :D

Please let me know if anyone else is interested.

Thanks,

Tim
