My clown fish are making babies!!

[troybuckle]

My clown fish have laid eggs! One is spawning them and the other fertilizing them on a rock which they have hosted the last 2 years. It’s crazy because the rock was covered in pulsing xenias which they have picked clear in a spot. I tried to take a video but my camera is dead.

very nice! Means you have a healthy tank!

Nice! Mine lay eggs every 10 days, like clockwork. It took them 4 years to become a mated pair and start laying eggs.

It's very cool to watch. My mated pair have been laying eggs for years.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

ccCapt. Has yours eggs ever hatched and resulted in babies?

 

[troybuckle]

Does anyone know how to post youtube vids directly into the post?

 

[Bifferwine]

Just paste the link. It should embed itself I think?

Yes, they hatch about 10 days after they are laid....and then they become free food for the other fish. There is wayyyy too much work involved in raising the fry than I care to undertake.
