I've never been the biggest fan of snowflake clowns but these look cool.

I first didn't like them, then hey grew on me while browsing through the designer and snowflake threads on reef2reef and reef central. Which is why I got my set of snowflake and a black ice, paired with plain Jane oce and black oce respectively. I am hoping in the future to make my own black snow(phantom) in the future, but would live to just get one from them either way, and maybe pair it with the wyoming white I'm also going to be getting. I'm imagining a dalmation with black face if I can get a phantom with black spots to pair with the Wyoming.   Btw Ryan, how those chromis doing for you, they eatting alright? |

Ok, so I know these are already available. just not sure how much, I'm still waiting to hear back on that. If the price is right I may have to get one of these instead of Wyoming white... I'm running out of tank space unless I give up my standard oce, and or sell black ice for this true black snowflake patern.

I just got in touch with Greg at cultivatedreef.com and he is going to be ordering me some. They are priced very reasonalbly for a designer clown. Just let him know through his website or sales@cultivatedreef.com and he will make it happen! The Phantom Clownfish are $99 for small (1 1/4"), $104 for medium (1 1/2") and $110 for large (1 3/4").

Yea I saw that Yesterday, I didn't know that Ora had released them yet, but at that price... I think the pattern on the phantoms look better.

I think you may be confused on the prices you posted? unless greg really needs the business thats about his cost on the fish
the only problem i would have getting them from greg is he dosnt sell fish so there will be no qt........
maybe he will have soren direct ship to you?

Yes, it'll be dropped shipped direct. He's not really looking to make much on these, just to satisfy a need for his customers and hes got the connection. He plans on maybe adding fish to his site in the next month.

I saw sea and reefs wholesale availability list today, they do have quite a bit to offer. Didn't see Wyoming Whites on it yet though, due to release in October. As for the coment about the prices I quoted, those are accurate for Greg's prices, and no he's not hard up, still making a good sale, just very reasonablely priced for such a nice/new fish, since Petco charges $110 for a black ice (hmm normally it's 50 for snowflake + 40 for black and white= black ice 110?). Granted, I'm very happy with my black ice (from sustainable aquatics) but to get a solid black snowflake for the same price, it's a steal to me (just I don't get my discount and no coupons Doh)

seamonkey84- again the prices you listed are wrong quote from cultivated reef "As you likely know, we are a coral farming company and focus primarily on tank raised coral and anemones. We are now very pleased to join forces with Sea and Reef Aquaculture to offer you a large selection of tank raised fish for your reefs. A complete list and a new page on our website dedicated to fish will be coming in shortly. In the meantime we wanted to let you know about the newly released designer clownfish known as the Phantom's. If you have not heard of these guys check out the link below. Jake Adams did a nice sum up of this exciting new fish. reefbuilders.com/2012/09/04/phantom-clownfish-sea-reef/Shipping fish to the New England states will be a flat $25 on all orders and will be shipped separately from our coral. Prices for the Phantoms are as follows... Small $125 Medium $135 Large $145 We are shipping these fish now so if you would like to be one of the first to own this amazing new designer clown email me (sales@cultivatedreef.com) with your order request and we can get things lined up. You can have one of these guys swimming in your tank as soon as tomorrow! Once the new fish page on the website is complete everything can be done automatically via the www.cultivatedreef.com website. But for now, shoot me an email and we can arrange payment/delivery etc." |
