When It's this cold out snowflakes do well, but when It starts to warm up they tend to melt!LOL ... Shift+R improves the quality of this image. CTRL+F5 reloads the whole page. 
Care level is about the same.

Corrected me if I am wrong. Most snowflake out there are ocellaris, so I am wonder how come they don't make snowflake from percula. Any chance to cross breed snowflake to percula to get offspring percula snowflake. Is there anyone doing it?

With percula, it seems everything is Picasso   But there are quite a few snowcasso's (snowflake x picasso, which results in a hybrid) to be seen on google

Yes, Snowflakes are ocellaris. I don't know what color you would get crossing a Snowflake (ocellaris) and a percula, but it would be a hybrid 50% ocellaris and 50% percula, not a percula snowflake.

Snowcasso clowns are actually not a hybrid. "Snowcasso" is just the name given by Doni's Reef to their premium picasso clowns.

Yes, Picasso's are percula. No a Snowcasso is NOT a cross between Snowflake X Picasso. They are NOT a hybrid. Snowcasso is a trademark name belonging to Doni's reef (only to be used with Doni's permission). Snowcasso is a cross between a Picasso X Picasso so they are Perculas (both parents originally came from ORA).
