Found 3 Baby Bangai Cardinals in my 300 Gallon Tonight

Just got back home from vacation and I noticed 3 Baby Bangai Cardinals hanging out with my 3 clown fish and rainbow anemone. I don't know how many days old they are. It seems like the 3 clown fish are protecting them from all the other fish in the tank.

What should I expect. Will they make it?

Here's a quick video.

Their is a very slight chance they will make it. I breed them around 10 years ago in 240 gal reef tank. I would catch them & then feed them new hatched brine shrimp. 1 day I was looking in the overflow box & their was an almost a full grown 1 in it.

Very cool! Years ago I found one baby down in my sump. I wasn't able to keep him alive for very long.

Came home from work today and I could only see one the three hanging out in the same place. Not sure if the other two move to a different part of the tank or not, but most likely were taken out by the other fish. I took a big piece of Piscine Frozen PE Mysis Shrimp and spread it out through the tank, I noticed the little guy eating some of the cloudy pieces that were spread out in the water. Hopefully he can make it.

That is quite the surprise to come home too! Thanks for sharing. Is the little guy still hanging on?
