I recently got a couple of 2" knifes. The LFS had them listed as regular clowns, but they have markings more similar to royals. I have had clown knifes before and have seen others (not as small as 2") & have never seen these types of markings. They markings r not vibrant or clearly dilineated but r still obvious. Just wondering what, if any, difference there is between the two types when they r this young? Cant get a good enough pic of them due to their size and the floating plants they like to hide in.
 
when ck are small,they got stripes too,honestly i havent seen 2" RCK ever,lets wait for my opinions

I know its not a great pic but you can see the markings I was talking about. They look more like wavy stripes than dots, but these are the youngest CKs/RCKs Ive ever seen.
