PaddyOB's Project ** Clownfish Breeding **

[paddyob]

Technically speaking... I now have two pair of OC.

SA Vivid Fancy OCs and straight up OC from an unknown source.

I'll post pics of both... You won't believe the color difference until you see them.

Yes even in different tanks. The males semen will stay in the water and as it passes through all the tanks there is a chance it will fertilize receptive eggs.

This ofcourse only works with tanks sharing the same sump thats why I said you need to keep them seperate.

Id be happy to donate my fish if you donate $400 to my wallet.

Yes I won't go sump. I want to be able to shut off the filters and run sponge if necessary. Separately in case of eggs or fry.


I wish. I'll start small. Work my way up to designers if I get good results.

Unique bugger for sure, but way outta my price range. Good luck.

Ok. Lining up next clown already. Lol.

My buddy has an onyx perc. No mate.

I'm going to buy her and try pair her with another standard perc.

Not prepared to pick her up yet.

Thought crossed my mind... Maybe I'm better to stick with OCs for species continuity.

Then if the day comes in my lifetime... I can selectively breed between them.

Unless of course they will actually interbreed as things say on the net.

It is my build. I can talk to who ever I like.

Keeping track of things I need to know.

At least he is only talking to himself...not the fishes. So maybe a little sanity remains somewhere.

This is a great project! I admire your ambition. I'm looking forward to following along to see the results.

Thanks!

I am hoping through trial (and not so much error) that something positive will come of this... Some day.
