MY CLOWNS LAID EGSS!!!...for the first time

[mjoener]

The past couple of days I have noticed the male, in the first picture, cleaning and rubbing the space.
Last night before the lights went off they were both doing a little cleaning of the area.
I was skeptical that they were going to spawn because of the tank load I have.
I have a Coral beauty, Tailspot Blenny, Banded Goby, and a Mandarin.
I also thought that they were fairly young, just under one year.
I have had them since the start of the tank, nearly 8 months ago though.
I have heard that if they do it once they will do it again.
So this time I am using it as a reference for the future for time to hatch and time to next spawn.

Thats cool, will any of the other tank mates harm them.

the eggs?
No the male will consistantly stay near fanning them and brushing them to prevent algea or any type of bad growth
