reef keeper Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 i hope it isand thanks for hanging around to see whats going down its amaizing to watch them grow up No problem clownfish are my favorite fish so im probrally going to be on this thread for a long time. i just subscribed to the thread. Go for it if you really want them and if their already breeding you wouldn't have to wait long for the babies. Link to comment

Go for it if you really want them and if their already breeding you wouldn't have to wait long for the babies. the hardest part is letting the first hatch go, just using them to feed the tank. its really killing me on a better note the nakedes are cleaning in my friends tank so in a week or so they will be ready to hatch out, just in time for me to get a pre polishing up for the snocassos Link to comment
reef keeper Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Did you get the naked clowns? Can't wait to see how they turn out. Link to comment
rrcg50 Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 Did you get the naked clowns?Can't wait to see how they turn out. they are sitting in a good friends tank, so i know i have first dibbs on them. i actually might leave them at his place and just collect the eggs. one less pair i have to watch even though i know i would probably do alot better job than most with them in my tank Link to comment
reef keeper Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Just wondering how hard is it to raise the fry? I'm going to try and breed clownfish and i don't won't my fish to breed and everytime i try to raise the fry they die. Link to comment
mrbigshot Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 id be surprised if teh first batch even got to hatch, usually there eaten by the parents. get your rots going, there gunna drop um pretty often from now on. Link to comment
rrcg50 Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 id be surprised if teh first batch even got to hatch, usually there eaten by the parents. get your rots going, there gunna drop um pretty often from now on. The eggs were actually looking pretty good but thats why i am letting it go. my rots are fine since i just hatched out a onyx batch so not to worried about that but thanks for the heads up. you are definately right about them munching some rots down. lil buggers can throw some food down Link to comment
reef keeper Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 When will the snocassos lay eggs again? Link to comment
rrcg50 Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 When will the snocassos lay eggs again? usually they hatch out on the 7th or 8th day- there is a 3 to 5 day grace period then more eggs. once i get the routine down i can tell you when they will lay and at what time they will hatch out. it is pretty amazing how it happens. its even cooler to know if you change the temp that it can speed tghe process up and if you lower the temp you can slow it down. the same thing with the larvae going into meta. for me i keep mine at 82 and that seems to get them into meta in as little as 4 days.

reef keeper Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 That's just crazy i never new you could speed up the procces and slow it down. Link to comment
rrcg50 Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 That's just crazy i never new you could speed up the procces and slow it down. really cool thing if you know you are going to be out the night of hatch you just leave the lights on and they wont hatch til you turn them off. trick comes in handy every once and a while Link to comment
rrcg50 Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 updates? Nothing new yet. Let 1st hatch feed the tank. Should lay in 2 days and then I will hatch them out. Link to comment
Pickle010 Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Nothing new yet. Let 1st hatch feed the tank. Should lay in 2 days and then I will hatch them out. That's pretty awesome that they made it to hatch without the male or female eating them. Is this the first spawn ever for this pair? Link to comment
rrcg50 Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 That's pretty awesome that they made it to hatch without the male or female eating them. Is this the first spawn ever for this pair? Yep. 1st time ever. The male was actually real good about taking care of them. Kinda supprised me. After the next 2 hatches I wil begin to tile train them. Hopefully it is as easy as my other pairs.

rrcg50 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 Is it go time? You're going to raise this hatch right? just went out to check on them and they are just chillin in the nem so looks like tomorrow sometime(fingers crossed) when did you get your pair from Doni? i got mine in Nov09 and 1 died and the replacement arrives this tuesaday. i would love to know the time from when you got them till they are spawing so i can guage when mine might lay. i bought mine in december of 08. so it took 1.5yrs to get them to size in a breeder setup and laying, could i have done it quicker maybe but i have enough experience to know when the time is right it will happen.
