WOW! Just witnessed Clowns laying eggs!

[bustayanky]

Just as the title says. I just witnessed my clowns lay their first clutch. I've been noticing them cleaning that particular spot for a few days now. Female is just an Onyx Percula bought 1-2 years back and the male is a doni's reef Grade A Picasso bought 10/02/08. Here's a video of what I caught, Enjoy! I'm super stoked!:rockon::rockon::

Thanks! I'm pretty excited. It's probably not going to make it since it's in my main display tank.

Congrats! That is a beautiful looking pair, especially the Picasso. Doni has great fish! Good luck.

That is sooo cool man, congrats! Hope things work out with them. Are you gonna try to get them to lay eggs on something else when they spawn again or just let nature take its course?

 

[Aaarrrggg]

If I could get them to lay on clay pot then I might try or give away for someone to try but with school and all. I don't think so. Just let nature takes it's course especially in my main display tank it won't last.

HAHA...I didn't noticed it until you mentioned it. I was sooo into them spawning. LOL

Well the 1st batch probably hatched and are gone now since they are in the main tank but now 2nd clutch on the way!
