CLowns about to lay eggs...

[javajoe]

A funny thing is happening with my fish. The 2 perc clowns appear to be ready to lay eggs- one of the clowns is making a depression in the sand and keeping it clean- i have read that the male does this prior to the female laying her eggs. The funny part, is that i think my scooter blenny realizes that this is going on- becasue he is hanging out right nearby a LOT- and sometimes even scoots rightin to the center of the 'nest' until the percs chase him out. it is quite funny to watch. I hope to get to see them lay their eggs, although i am sure they are going to be my scooters dinner!
Just thought i would share- animal behaviour is really quite amusing sometimes! (kinda like what you see at christmas time in the malls....)

Wow! Maybe y'all should come and sit by my tank and fight my scooter for the eggs! (just kidding...)
Anyawy- turns out, the scooter has 'taken over' the 'nest'. He has decided that he likes their little depression in the sand the clowns made, so he hangs out there now, and the clowns have now moves to another part of the tank! I really get a kick out of watching these guys- their behavior is really funny!
