No offense ,but I don't think it will cost you 10,000 or more dollars to raise clownfish either.

If it cost that muich ,nobody would be breeding them outside of public aquariums and the like.

Theres a number of people who breed them up here in edmonton ,so I really really don't think its costs that much to raise them.

Heck ,look at all the people who breed them all over the world. I don't think it costs 10,000+

definately not.

All it takes is a small grow tank, food, heater, and air

Can be done for under $50

I have personally raised clownfish for years, so has another personal friend of mine.

I recently bread mine and have 15 babies that are 4 months old now. It's alot of initial setup but not that difficult. Get setup with a good supply of rotifers and phyto before even attempting to save the eggs. You need to have a sustainable supply of food for them.
