Finally got one of those great deals...
Unfortunately, I can't get a good picture of them, but I'll keep trying.
Bought a breeding group of 4 large black clowns. One male and female which are big, over 3" each, and a couple of other clowns that are about 2". The guy had them in a 30 or so gallon tank with a couple pcs of live rock, bare bottom with a half dozen or so anemones (nothing fancy) and he said that they spawn all the time and he's sold plenty of little ones. He was getting out of the breeding business for a while while he was concentrating on changing jobs.
Thought I was getting a good deal on the 4 clowns for under $80. He's like, "there's 3 anemones on this piece of live rock, you can have the rock and the anemones too" The rock itself is about the size of a cantelope, maybe even bigger. (Greg knows his melons better than I do)
He then proceeded to give me a padded cooler/toolbox thing that he got for free. Said I could keep it. SCORE. He bagged the fish up into 2 bags, then gave me an extra tall bucket that said Instant Ocean 200 gallons on the side.
Acclimated the fish and they tore straight to the rock with the poor anemones on it. There's 4 clowns trying to hide in a few anemones that are about 3" across. Hopefully they calm down soon. There's a GBTA in that tank too that maybe they'll find.
Here's one picture that didn't turn out TOO bad.
