Preciate the compliments! The only thing I am concerned about is the size of the male. For as old as these clowns are supposed to be, they are both quite small, especially the male. Makes me think he is still a submale. Without competition will a submale always turn into a male? Or not all the time?

From what I understand as soon as the female accepts him as a mate he will develope as be should. Being accepted as a mate not the competition is what triggers the change. I read a thread where a female would not accept a male at all and when both were introduced into a new enviornment they finally hooked up and the male didn't fully develope until then.

Lets hope a 60 cube is a love motel to them;) I know that she tolerates him, but doesn't seem to have accepted him yet.

The C-Quest are impossible (almost;)) to find but there are ultra snowflakes that are almost as nice, some would say nicer with cool markings. When it comes to pure white clowns though, nothing beats a c-quest white oscillaris.

Yes I have been told the C-Quest clowns have a different white than Ora's Platniums which is the ones I have although I like my pair of platniums I would like to have a pair of wyomings to compare and of coarse Brag :tongue: you said you were worried about size how big is your male I got a snowcasso male that I say is around a half an inch .5 in size at first I worried like you that he would get caught in my mp but he does well and is as happy as can be :smile:

I would say he is closer to an inch and healthy as far as I can tell, it's just I hope he is a viable mate for the female.
