pm me a price please
christosclowns
Well there is only about 60 eggs left usually i wont collect the first three batches because their weak but i will try these guys. As far as prices go i have to see how many picassos i get out of them. I have bred picassos before and the percentages are about 25 to 35 percent so i will have to see. There is only about 60 eggs left so the next few spawns will be better as they learn how to lay eggsa better i will keep everyone posted and thank you
Nanobuds

Congratz on your picasso clownfishs breeding. love the setup. What is the best way to setup a tank to raise them like yours but in a smaller version. You got me involve into breeding now. i will do some more research but i just wanna ask you first since you have done it successfully well. btw When they get bigger and ready to go, can you put me on the list. i would love to have a pair of your picasso babies.. i live in mississippi.
