I was browsing JL aquatics site, and came across some Black percs! 34.95 each. I haven't seen these in a while, and I know some people here are looking.. http://www.jlaquatics.com/static/livestock/noteworthy.htm

too bad I already have a pair of true percs..

Good find Tekk! 34.95 is a good price.

If someone buys some please post some pics.

I would like to compare them to my pair of Black Ocellaris Clowns.

34.95 is the going rate for black percs AKA black saddlebacks AKA A. premnas, black variant. Only drawback is that they are rarely if ever captive bred; almost always coming from the wild, so be forewarned.

I thought saddlebacks and black percs were different?

i think they mis-labeled the fish (although the scientific name is correct)....they look like black ocellaris (i'm sure they are not saddlebacks)......very nice batch though....and amazing price!

I was in the J & L today and they look great I wish I had the tank up and running. Later :jam:

If anyone decides to order a pair of these let me know. I'd take a pair too and help out with the shipping.

I'm temped .. but I would have to replace two ocellaris that I already have.
They ship to Toronto???

They look to be black ocellaris and probably mis-labeled as black percs. I see they also have them labeled as mis-bared so I would assume they are from England or ORA.

They have prices listed per box for live goods to Toronto so I'd assume they do ship here, but I have no personal experience doing so.
