Clownfish with a puzzle piece pattern

[richiev]

Does anyone know if there's any special name for clowns that look like this?

This specific pic is a black ice clownfish, but that name seems to have all sorts of different variations.

Years ago when I was getting back into the hobby, I saw one very similar to this at Neptune ( @robert4025 ). I was still getting my tank setup, so I didn't pick it up. I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I went back the next day and it was gone. To this day it's the one that got away. One with the clownfish style, white line, orange, black border on white, and with the white shape looking like a jigsaw puzzle piece.

When I was out on vacation months back my mochavinci died, and I want to find a new partner for my davinci. I'm hoping I can track down one of these. Bonus points if quarantined. By default I'd need a smaller one, so it can be the male and my davinci will be the female, but potentially if I could find a pair I'd replace my davinci.

Thanks!

Thanks!

It’s actually a black ice snowflake clownfish. Here’s the youtube video as the image you have is their thumbnail in reverse. Algaebarn has this exact designer.

I currently have one Black Ice Snowflake Clownfish, though he is a little on the older side at 7 years old.

Is this kinda what you’re looking for? Or more patterny design?

Those are cool, but I'm looking for the standard clown patterning overall, with the variation being the puzzle piece style.

Thanks for all the pointers so far all!

Thread hijack sort of.

Have you seen the long fin clownfish? I just got a couple and really like the fins being long.

I absolutely support all the variations, and the breeders out there (how great we have a nice, popular, fish that's captive bred). I'm still a fan of the clowns that look like a semblance of Nemo .

This is the second pair I have, very healthy yet I'm not attached to them at all unlike my maroons if might be intrested.

I was informed they were Black Ice clowns when I got them. They have none of the scattered black spots just orange and black stripes.

I've had them well over 7months.

Those look like nice ones, very close to what I'm looking for. The thinner line and more direct jigsaw puzzle piece shape is the thing I'm holding out for.

All good, if you change your mind I'd let em go for cheap $60 for the pair
or trade for a hammer or dry goods etc.

I'm kinda wanting either golden nugget maroons, clarkiis or possibly the saddle back varriant. Basically the mean and larger clowns.
