Bang, what do u do for hatchign the eggs? Did u leave em in the tank then "flashlight" them out? did u remove the surface where the eggs were laid? Im just curious because my true percs are getting to breedable size and my goal is to raise seom fry up to fish.

 

[saltynewbie]

Well, I'm down to about 100 but that's just a guess. I believe I started them on BBS too soon. Live & learn I guess. The parents are setting up to spawn again.
These are A. Ocellaris.
I owe someone an appology. Both of the parents have 9 dorsal spines and I believed that was the ultimate test on specie. I've recently learned from a very astute hobbiest that my Clownfish are Ocellaris and not Perculas.

Bang,
Very cool stuff indeed. Wish you the best of luck on their success, and 1000 thanks for getting into tank raising as a whole.

I believe live Zooplankton is the deciding factor.
Or, it could be the Cod Liver Oil I add to their blender mush.

 

[lovethesea]

Wow, cod liver oil in blender mush, what more could a girl ask for...
