i think i have clown fry in my tank!

[heartben]

help me please. i seriously think i have clown fish fry in my tank. i once bred beta fish and they looked similar to this. so i think its the clowns

i need to know what to do, if anyone has suggestions please let me know

im not talking like eggs, im talking like tiny little clearish fish swimming around

i thought they were pods at first but there are alot of them and they sleep like th clown fish do. (in the corners)

im going to post this on girs as well if anyone wants to PM or reply to help me out

if you can REALLY help me, help me identify if they are clown fry and help me get them to live i will give you one or 2 (depending on the amount that live)

i appreciate it.

thanks

well, if you want them to live you need, to set up a tank with a heater a bubbler, rotifers, and phyoto. Then but all the fry in there. i am NO fish breeder that is just my .02

you might as well call them fish food now! If they are fry they are gonna be dead by tonight when their yoke sac is gone. What kind of clowns do you have? Have they been swimming around like normal for the last week?

ive been reading about them a alittle and yep as js_bass said you would need to have green water to feed rotifers. im not sure when they start eating after the free swimming stage so unless you could supply rotifers in that timeframe it looks like they wont survive.

from what ive read, clowns breed like clockwork.

read up on growing rotifers and try your hand at raising them in the future. heck youve reached a milestone, just getting a pair that will take eggs to freeswimming.

post as good a pic up here as you can so we can see the fry.

My False percs lay eggs every 21 days. When they hatch it is like feeding my tank for free.
