we have clownfish eggs!

We have a clonwfish couple in our reef tank and we knew they were reproductive pair because the previous owner had seen eggs several time.

It's the first time they reproduce in our tank (we have them for almost a year now). :)

a pic (sorry I dont have a macro lens!) the eggs are in the circle I draw...

Always cool to see them spawn, unfortunately you will probably not see a baby as they are usually taken out by predators, what other fish do you have in the tank?

[josie]

yes I really think someone will eat caviar soon :wink:
other fish in the tank: cardinals, tangs, mandarin, blennies, gobies, anthias, angel....

you can always try to catch them on the night of hatch ;-D

... but don't try until you have a stable rotifer culture ...
