Pics of Baby Clown knives

[kiloindia]

Here's a couple pics. Hmnnn, am I doing this right??? Check 2nd to last
picture, this one has no spots and no stripes!! I would have swore it did
when I brought them home. I have 3 in this little tank. Sure looks like a
clown, hmnnn. Any ideas??

Those guys are tiny. Good luck with them
I wonder if that stripeless might be a Notopterus Notopterus. It might be too soon to tell though. If so, they're the smaller of the Notopterus species maxing out at about 2ft, but I believe they are also the most aggressive out of all the species as well.

I feel stupid asking this but are they royal clown knives? Cause i think my LFS has those no bigger then 4" for 7 dollars a piece.

nope those are regular clowns

Royals have a spot-like stripe pattern. I've never seen them for sale less than 6" though. And by then, their patterns are pretty pronounce so you can tell. At 4"...that's a bit tough. The other thing I've noticed about Royals are the fact that they are more silver body whereas a regular Clown is more of a grayish green tone.

at 4" clowns have a pretty disticnt spot pattern. check out the last pic you can clearly see spots.. they are hard to differentiate at that size though somtimes
