Well I have a couple questions...
1. How long does it take for clown eggs to hatch?
2. I pulled them out of the display tank and put them into the fuge. Any chance the will live?
Thanks for your help!

1. It depends on the water temp. about 8 days at 82F.
2. The eggs need turbulent waterflow or a dad to fan them. If they hatch there is a small chance a couple mught make it. The normally require a lot of food floating by like Rotifers or Copepod Larvae for the first 4 or 5 days.

Thanks, I don't know... Maybe we will get lucky. After that damn Finding Nemo movie the kids are going crazy over this.
