Clarion angel--Holacanthus clarionensis

Hey guys and girls check out this rarity from the protected areas of the Revillagigedo Islands they are endemic there, with stragglers at Guadalupe, Alijos Rocks, southern Baja and the SW Gulf of California and at Banderas Bay in the SE Gulf of California, and Clipperton Island.
Obviously they are found from california to mexico.
This angel is classed as one of the rarest of all marine angelfish.
What a beautiful fish as a juvenile.

Schooling adults.



collected clarions.



The very prety juvenile.

Who collected those? I want one, SO bad

i just get the pics and put them on.
i would love one of the juveniles,sweet!!

I can imagine one would be expensive in a shop, their definately better looking than a flame angel, and last i checked their around $130ish.

being that the place they are the most common in is a protected zone now they are very rare to come onto the market,i would imagine they would cost quite a few hundred dollars each.
