Clowns and mating

[newbreefer20]

Hey all,

I have a Black ocellaris and orange ocellaris which have paired up about 2 months ago. When will they have babies? What will they look like? How deep should my sandbed be for a successful hatching?

anyone?

it's not that easy. their not convict ciclids that have babies no matter what. you want to breed them??? you gonna need a lot of research!!!
when will they have babies??? when they're old enough.
what will the babies look like?? ocellaris clowns, maybe black, maybe orange, or maybe kinda brownish black.
how deep sand bed?? you don't really even need one.
If you don't have a lot of experience with fish care...... breeding is going to be 100x harder. just concentrate on keeping fish healthy first.
