christosclowns Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 I did have snowflakes babies before when i lost my male about two years ago i havent had any since I was getting out of 100 to to hundred eggs 25 to 50 snowflakes some extreme some not so extreme. Right now there is about 100 or so eggs give or take its their second time laying so im sure the spawns will just get larger. The pictures are blurrry i will get better ones asap as they develope eyes. Hope he lets them go to full term hes doing a great job right now on day 3 \ this wyoming whote has just layed for the second time pictured below i hope he fertilizies next week so we can get some cool baboes out of him Dont mean to get off topic but i snapped a pic of these two tonight had to share lol Link to comment

christosclowns Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Just a question what does donis reef have to do with me or my clowns. This thread has nothing to do with her fish. Maybe you think that my fish are from her your very wrong. These fish are wild caught offspring just to give ya a heads up. Link to comment

christosclowns Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 no actually i have had the worst vibrio virus in the world. It was horrible. I ran into problems with bad microalgae dont even ask it was brutal. Im building a whole new grow out cuz everything was infested and i didnt feel like bleaching so im going with acrylic tanks brand new. Its always somehting. Another thing i found out is that the blue bucket of salt from oceanic has .50 ammonia when diluted and i was getting die offs so im working kinks out. When it rains it pours. Right now i have no babies at all. I have lost 8 batches in a row and im waiting for new nano from reed mariculture cuz the three i had were bad and caused serious problems. But randy reed is great and hes covering everything and getting me out new stuff. I hope it gets better Link to comment
usf fan Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 How did you cure it that's serious stuff don't your parents have it Link to comment
christosclowns Posted October 18, 2009 Author Share Posted October 18, 2009 No the parents are perfect because they are on two different systems and i never croos contaminate water. I pretty much starting the growout form scratch all over again. Its the only option so these things happen. Just like people we get sick sometimes we can cure it sometimes it is a life long illness that kills us. I dunno seems like clownfish die allot easier but im trying so well see Link to comment
christosclowns Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Ok well here is an update for those interested. I have 5 snowflake pairs laying right now and all of them are fertile. I wll be hatching around 300 eggs this weekend from pair 2. The original male and the second male who were eating the eggs are fertile and have stopped so hopefully I will have some wicked looking fish in the next month. I hope everyone is still interested as i will be giving the first pair away for free in a drawing those who are interested start speaking you piece. i hope i get to talk with all of you. This year will be a great year for clownfish considering the fact that i figured out the lil problems I ran into and now i have more eggs and babies that i know what to do with as it looks. Ill ttyl see ya Link to comment
