Smelled like chicken but taste like fish.

This is why I love this hobby. Always something new happening by accident.

Any update on the babies?

No. I’m at work today through Monday. I’ll probably be dropping by Tuesday to give him a light and some fluorine so I’ll get updates then. One of his dogs had to go to the vet yesterday for a limp so he has been tied up.

Update: I wish I had a pic, but drumroll……

It appears to be they are CLOWNFISH.

Once they are in a better container for pics, I’ll take some.

My theory in why they may have delayed this long, and the surprise of finding in the tank lies in a cowry.

He has two large huge cowries, and I believe it knocked off some eggs. This caused them to hatch later and unknown to him there was the possibility of clownfish eggs somewhere knocked off the rock.

It has been a wild ride. I was WRONG. Not the first time and won’t be the last.

It was a pleasure updating this fun little journey and playing devils advocate to the dismay of some people, I’m sure. Lol

Anyway next update should be pics of them!

I’m not sure why they were delayed metamorphosis for this loooong period of time, but here we are. Maybe they will have a cool
Color morph or not. Who knows. We will see.
