    I don't think Maroon lightnings are simply "for sale." One went to a breeder in hopes of being able to produce more of the rare variant. I believe it was called Project Lightning.

    As far as those clarkii's, they're pretty cool, and its nice to see variants in clowns other than occ's and perc's.

    IIRC it was sold for around 2.5 thousand, nothing compared to some Centropyge species.

    Yeah the lightning Maroons sell for about 2K Each. I never really liked Plaitnum Clowns for some reason...
