ID these clowns!!..?


I figured saince I was taking some pics I would post some more questions I had.

I got these guys from Jerry a while ago. He said he got them as black perculas, and I have seen an identical pair for sale or WW ($55 each).
The larger one has 2 bars instead of 3, so I think that one might be a black saddle back, but the other has 3 bars. and they both have black tails.
???????????????????
I dunno??

And a pic of my other clown just for fun. They co-habitate the 125 with the black ones. They fought a little when first introduced, but are fine and happy now.

I believe that they are A. polymnus. We buy them all the time as black saddlebacks. I have one male right now.

clown nut says he is 100% sure they are black sattle back... I showed him the pic before I told him what the thread was about. But, if you could prove him wrong, I sure would enjoy seeing his face!

JAWS I asked about them when I was in OD a while back. The poster behind the counter said they were saddle backs, but I thought that they had 2 stripes?
