Oh yea!! Tha papa's name is Nemo.. (He's all grown up now)
Once the eggs are laid down it is very difficult to do anything in the tank. Nemo comes and beats "the you know what" out of me!! He is a very protective father!!

Hi Thomas,
I don't have any anenomes. They host that colt coral that's in the picture, been living in it for over a year.
WHO DEY, when I got these 2 fish about 15 months ago, Cora was just a tad bit bigger than Nemo, Now she is twice his size. She immediately was the aggressor from the beginning. They have been inseperable ever since.

Nice!
That is prolly some of the coolest pics i've ever seen.
So will the babies make it in your tank? or will they get eaten?

Unfortunately.... they'll become fish food. Mom and dad will partake also. :D
Is this the first brood? I've heard the first isn't a healthy brood anyway. :thinking:
 
Ya info please??
they wont make it? Aww that stinks!!

BTW, I LOVED the pics, I've never seen that, really awesome, thanks for sharing!

This is their 7th batch..... I don't have the setup to hatch and raise the eggs so as Bigarn said, Fish Food!
Someday I'll set up the fry system and see if I can hatch them. If you're interested in seeing that done do a search here under a member named BangGuy. He has raised some successfully.
Thanks....
