    My understanding is that any solitary clown will turn female as there is no female present to restrain the sexual change. If i'm incorrect somebody set me straight.

    I just rode my bike to one of my LFS's and bought a Black Clownfish for $20. Now I just need to have my parents drive me there to pick it up ;D I didn't want it to be shaken to death on the bike ride back.

    Thanks for all the help guys!

    I know! They're normally $45, but they had a surprise 1 day sale for anyone who came in the store that one day :)
