I will post some updated vids tonight.
Currect Status: Clutch 3 hatched on Friday, March 23rd. BIGGEST catch ever. Over 200 fry! Only 1 problem. No where to put them. I have 2 tanks going, a 29G and a 10G for the babies. the 29G has the last clutch and just went through meta phase, turned orange and got 1-2 stripes so far. 10G tank has my first 2 babies and are full baby clown looking now, nice color, active, all 3 stripes. So... what do I do with 200 new babies? Well.. I had hoped they would get a long with the 2 week old babies. Turns out, not a wise idea. Lost almost all of them by yesterday. I think I had 3 remaining. So all weekend, every 15 minutes, I was sucking out half a dozen dead fry that the bigger ones kept biting. Sucks, but no biggie to me. All a BIG learning experience, so even my failures are successes to me because I learn what not to do next time.
So today I have 30+ 2.5 week old babies, 3x 4 day old babies (if they are still alive when I get home), and the 10G tank with 2 babies that are going on 2 months now. These little guys take A LOT longer than I was expecting to grow up to "reef tank capable" size. I think I am looking at 6+ months minimum before they are big enough to go into a tank with other fish. Sunday the clowns layed another clutch of eggs, they seem to only wait 2 days after the eggs hatch before they lay new ones now. I am going to have to skip some batches though because I am not quite setup for this type of turnover, seems I would need at least 4 different tanks to put the different phases of clowns in, which I am not really wanting to do. I am always WAAAY over my limit on how many tanks I am supposed to have in my apartment (1), I have 7 now. Since this was more of a learning experience than something I wanted to do long term I don't really want to keep this going. Maybe 1 more batch. My goal is to get positive karma.. breed enough fish and give them away in order to balance out all the fish I have taken in my lifetime. I figured I have taken about 100 fish total in my 20+ years in the hobby, so my goal is to give at least 100 fish back to the hobby.
