Looking good keep up the good work . Have they started to show aggression amongst themselves yet. I am hoping to have a hatch-out tonight.

I never really see any aggression amonst the youngsters. It seems that by keeping the group together prevents any one individual from becoming highly aggressive. Saw the same thing when I was raising some Tomato clowns. I still keep about 50 year olds in the same 10 gallon tank without any issues.

Good Luck with your hatch!!!

Made a little video of how I hatchout my clownfish eggs. Not the greatest but gives you a rough idea of how strong the air bubbles are. Not sure if I can link to videos, so here goes nothing.

 

[Krogex]

I have used this technique for about 8 hatches so far . I usually get a complete hatch out when i get the night correct but i have had great success when I have done it a day early or even a two day hatch . Works like a charm hope this gives people a better idea of how much air is needed when remote hatching.

I was just wondering what are your or breeders in general thoughts on substrate in the grow out tanks?

 

[BIGSKY]

no substrate is the way to go way less hassle to clean

 

[landlord]

In my broodtock tanks a try and have no substrate, as mentioned above it is for cleaning purposes.

 

[Krogex]

Agreed clean bottom is definitely easier to clean was just wondering on other people take on it.

 

[BIGSKY]

What are you using for your grow out tanks from hatch is it a ten gallon tank ?
