So, this is interesting, just saw these in the tank this evening. Not sure if they're clownfish babies or something else? Only have one mated clownfish pair, that's why I think they may be that? There's a lot of them swimming, hard to get a video!

Kinda hard to tell but looks like copepods to me, guess if you don't see baby clowns swimming around in a month you'll know for sure
It is hard to see from the video. And not knowing how magnified your camera was. Seem to move too fast and smooth for that size of pod IMO. Clownfish fry will look like a fish just super small. So if there is a translucent body (tail) along with the white circles moving in the video then they are most likely. If the white shapes in the video are exact, then they may be a copepod or isopod.
I'm curious too, currently waiting for our tank lights to come on so I can see if I see anything! I'm not that hopeful that any will survive, but it's still exciting and there is a little hope haha.This is just a question to those that know:
Do newly-hatched clowns hide during the day or would they be just as likely to be swimming around during light period?
*only ask because this a lights OUT video so wondering what things look like during normal light period
No clownfish larvae do not hide, they drift in the water column day and night.This is just a question to those that know:
