Longfin clownfish. I think they are ugly from what I have seen.

I find them very ugly, would never buy one.
Yeah I'm not a fan. Can't imagine it's good for the fish either. Gotta take more energy to swim with those fins dragging
Kind of looks to me like someone photoshopped a pic of a normal percula. 
Not saying there aren't any clowns that are truly like that, but that pick looks doctored to me.

we also saw lightening maroon f2a clowns, which were surprisingly pretty. As mike said, captive bred masked angels stole the show
also present were captive bred cuttlefish, clarion angel, and tell other angels from Rising Tide.
Can't say I like designer clowns but it is exciting that breeding marine fish has progressed so much.

I don't care for man fidging and manipulating genetics of any species. It's an abomination what they have done with the dog breeds. The inbreeding has created a veterinarian's cash cow, and dogs that suffer from multiple complications.
Give me what nature made and I'm happy.

This is a naturally occurring genetic anomaly.
I talked to to matt c from sustainable about it, this is not something he strived to create or tryed too.
They can not be housed with regular clownfish with normal fins, their swimming is impeded and they are a easy target for getting picked on. Even together I assume two would long term pick on each other. I personally don't think they should be available to general public because most people will try to pair them with another clown and watch one get picked on endlessly. Even in grow out I believe he has to separate them cause of their impediment.

I would never buy one.....ugly IMHO.
Did you buy them or they are pics from macna??
Pics from MACNA, they were not for sale. From what I was told, they will be for sale next. year. As you can see they had them in this little container at the surface of the water so it was easy to take pics (just my cellphone). Pretty cool, but I was more impressed with the F2 lightning maroons.
