There was no picture of one on that link you posted, or at least not that i could find. I think they are also known as wide band clowns?

I saw one at an LFS, they were asking $400!! They are extremely rare...to be honest I didnt think it was the most attractive clown, but the rare factor is very cool.

well they caught my attention because they look like little bumble bees haha, they are still babies, I know they wont look like that as they grow, but I do like the look, and the fact they are not too common.

They will be in my tank on the weekend of the 20th. It will be 6 weeks since my tank has been fishless due to an ich breakout. I will post pics for sure.
