New to breeding clownfish, PLENTY of questions...

[crazinezz978]

I have a large Female Oceelaris clown. I want to pair her with a male, how should I do this?
I was considering introducing several males and having her decide, or just adding a male thats small.



Does tank height play a factor in clownfish breeding?



Do I need an anemone? I'd rather not use one.



I know the cycle of light matters, but does the actual kind of light matter for breeding clowns, I have Normal output lights I'd like to use on a timer. Would that higher/lower chances of the clowns breeding?



ANY other advice would be greatt

also, should I add other fish in their tank or not?

what kinda clown fish you got..just add a single small one and have plenty patience. the only way to increase your single clowns chances of breeding is find it a mate and let them become bonded and keep tank stable as possible. tank height gives them more room . you dont have to have a nem . lighting just stable. other advice is do lotts of research, other fish to add, i'd just add a small same kinda clown with the bigger one. hope this helps

Can i use a 12g Nano Cube as a breeding tank?

Yes.

They need a constant light cycle. Warm water may help 80-82. And a lot of food!

Lots of patience!! My first pair were together for 4 years before they started spawning.
