christosclowns Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 All apoligies are accepted and there is no need to apologize. Everyone in the hobby has the right to look into buyer beware things for good reason. Ddr phish its cool man no hard feelings to anyone i just wanna talk clowns. And I will def update the list of who is in line for clowns as soon as i have a chance. Im really frustrated this is there second batch together and the frickin male is icking eggs off again uhhhhhhhhh well see Link to comment
christosclowns Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 Well here we are again spawn number two and he has been eating the eggs. She pix off a couple here and there as well. My question now is, is the snowflake fertile hmmmmm. I dont see why he wouldnt be my other snowflake male is fertile because i have gotten eggs from him and his female. What I think is happening and after watching them live all night last night I saw that he does not have his timing down right. Shell go ahead and lay eggs and hell kind of bite at the rock and then play and then go over the pot but doesnt even hit the eggs. Id say out of 500 eggs hes lucky to follow her lead on a hundred of them. I dont know what else to think. My other pairs had similar problems and then bam one day it was perfect. That male should always follow her lead. Well have to see next week what happens damn it lol patience patience lol Link to comment

But seriously, since its only spawn number two I wouldn't worry, isn't that normal for the first few spawns? Link to comment
christosclowns Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Sometimes i dont see why he wouldnt be fertile but who knows if hes not fertile then theres no snowflakes lol but i highly doubt that. Im thinking he is just no in sequence with her and it might take a couple spawns now ill have to wait 10 days Link to comment
flamethis Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Maybe he's thinkin he don't want no pain in the butt little clowns beggin for his food. lol Seriously I've heard ( have a local guy that raises Clarkii's and Tomatoe clowns) that it can take a few spawns before the are both sure of what they are doing..

colgan10 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Glad to see that you didn't take all that abuse people were giving you on here. I have not been on this thread recently, but it does seem people do like stirring the pot on this site. THANK YOU for putting me on the list i really hope this works have been wanting one of these bad boys for a LONG time! Keep up the good work! Link to comment
christosclowns Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 I like the fact of making a list because if they do ever make hatch day lol which they will one day, i have an idea of who wanted them. I dont like to jump the gun and say oh yeah im gonna have allot.. I have bred a picasso male with a reg onyx female and i have gotten picasso offspring about thirty percent. So i just hope that i get snowflakes from this pair lmao or i will be maddddddd lol Link to comment
Scott Riemer Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Glad to see that you didn't take all that abuse people were giving you on here. Wow, abuse? Really? Anyway, Erik, I hopefully the next spawn is the ticket. Link to comment
dtfleming Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I guess its abuse to inquire about a seller and his feedback and the fact the issues were brought up on another forum. Christo did show his proof and feedback. Its always good to find out about people BEFORE you buy from them. Link to comment
colgan10 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 i know what you all are saying but i knew he was for real i saw some of his stuff on reefsanctuary. I wasn't trying to upset you all just thank him. I'm sorry. Link to comment

christosclowns Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Listen lets all meet in vegas and get some beer lol. Wait I cant do that whos gonna watch my fish lol. Anyway its all good I have a feeling the next spawn is goint to be the one. Link to comment
christosclowns Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Ok here is the list so far and again this list is a way for me to keep track of whos following me and who is interested in Snowflakes. Again I do not know what percentage will be snowflakes and if there is not any snowflakes which I highly doubt it will be fun to see what happens. 1. caddyshack 2. colgan10 3. SmittyCoco 4. MarvinsReef 5. m'akoyPINOY 6.. Wawawang 7.. dtfleming 8 .ddr_phish 9 . nebther 10 . nanoclown 11 . flamethis 12 . SPerry 13 . Tony 14 . xtra0t 15 . davyraddy 16. kigs 17. rbdesigns Again this is a guideline for myself i dont jump the gun and say yeah guys I have snowflakes. Im attempting to breed some and it might take me a couple tries but damn it im gonna get em lol. My other snowflake/occ pair gave off about half snowflakes and when i lost them both in a huge power outage i was devastated. So now these two have taken there place. So maybe I need to pray to the clown gods lol Link to comment
Scott Riemer Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Erik, my name should be on your list for the Onyx, not the Snowflake. Link to comment
christosclowns Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Ok scott problem fixed sorry Link to comment
jSully Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 could I be placed in the raffle too? also, I'm interested in a Grade A picasso (2 connecting stripes) and a snowflake.. what kind of prices will you be charging? Link to comment
christosclowns Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Well here is the deal. My picasso breeders were moved into a system about three weeks ago. I just built a brand new system yesterday and im cycling it right now. All my pairs will be moving into the big system this coming week. It probably is going to throw off spawning for a little while but they will start up again. Im looking for long term stability in water quality and overall enviornment for these clowns. I take care of them like they are one of my kids lol. I have a huge uv on the new system great filtration, a chiller and heater together. I want them to be happy. It might not make everyone else happy since it might throw there spawns off for however long they take to settle but they will lay again. So in the mean time im just enjoying the conversation and looking foward to hopefully one day offer clowns to whomever willl be inteested. At this time all I have available are my Onyx's and with time I hope to offer the snowflakes and picassos. Thank you Link to comment
davyraddy Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hi Erik, Think your snowflakes look amazing. Been following this thread with interest. Would also be interested in a pair of snowflakes if/when available, thanks. Link to comment
christosclowns Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 If and when thats the way to put it thank you for following your on Well i dont want to jump the gun with prices but most stores if they have a snowflake will charge 200 to 250 for one im prob gonna stick between the 100 and 200 mark depending on the patterns and amount of white. I will make it fair as I can for everyone. Now dont quote me on that im just giving margin for change thats all. I when that bridge comes i will cross it lol Link to comment
Kigs Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 My name is erik and thats that. heres new pix she layed tonight again And the new system we built today ask star the guy in this thread we spoke today while i was bulding it and ask him what my name is to lol Just out of curiosity, if the pics are of your clowns laying eggs taken on jan 6th of 2009, why does the exif data say that pics were taken Jan 26th...? of 2008? Link to comment
jjjo Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Just out of curiosity, if the pics are of your clowns laying eggs taken on jan 6th of 2009, why does the exif data say that pics were taken Jan 26th...? of 2008? if the battery is ever taken out of the camera.. to be replaced charged etc... the camera i think resets itself. perhaps he forgot to reset date and time... Just a quick thought tho. the snowflake looks great BTW. good luck with the eggs! Link to comment
m'akoyPINOY Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 i'm not on the list?????i thought i'm next after MARVINSREEF? pls put me on the list for snowflakes! Link to comment
