FIRST MAY I SAY WOW THATS A VERY SWEET LOOKING CLOWN......
SECOND IF I MAY ASK WHATS HIS COST?
AND LAST I NOTICED A A BOWL IN THE TANK WHATIS THAT USED FOR?
well, the bowl is used to keep mushroom frags from floating away. it also helps them to "attach" to the LR rubble in the bottom. not a lot of flow inside of it but enough to keep everything happy. here you can see the shrooms and yellow devils hand frags in the bowl.

the last time i saw an Allards clown for sale ... the SALE price on it was $69.99.
before ANYONE says anything ... i know about the algae problem in this tank. it gets sucked out every 3 weeks (when i change the water).
Looks a lot like my female clark!
According to my clownfish books, allards have a pale tail, and all other fins are orange.
They are found only off the eastern coast of Africa, such as Kenya, which is why they are so rare in the hobby.
Not trying to knock ya or anything, just trying to help!
Either way, its a good looking fish, and definatly part of the clark complex, which means, she'll get big and mean, which is why mine lives in the 300 gallon prop tank now!
the tail is VERY pail, and the other fins are all orange. the dorsel looks black in the pics, but it is mostly a very deep orange. maybe a little black on the base (fading to orange). that would make it hard to seperate the 2.
Yes tough to id, in just pics. Next time you're over, I'll show you my books. The pics in there the entire dorsal, ventral, pectorial, and anal fins are bright orange.
hmmm, sound like we have our next meeting host. at home this time !!
