clown breeding

I went into a Petco for the first time in probably a decade, just to look around. Their fish tanks were in ok state, although I could see in one particular chamber a fish constantly scratching. 😢 I also saw this handsome guy. Any idea what this particular customization is? (No, I did not buy...

Hi everyone I was wondering if anyone knew what this maybe it’s only been there a few days like a lump and white marks on both fish they’ve been getting along really good but noticed recently they’ve been cleaning there pot out more a fighting a little from time to time but still swimming...

My anenome is usually very large and covers this section of the tank but I did a decent water change today and he hasn't come back to normal size yet. This allowed me to notice a bunch of eggs stuck to the rock usually hidden by him. I'm guessing they are my two clown fish eggs but I have no...

Can I use a long air stone for beneficial bacteria I’ll leave it off and have another air stone going but I’ll use the air stone for bacteria since it has many small pores so that my rotifers or clownfish fry can’t get stuck in i haven’t seen any discussions on this and just wanted to see if it...

I had my clownfish for 3 years now and have laid eggs for the first time and I’m not sure what I want to do but leaning towards letting nature take its course. I’ve got a saltwater and a freshwater tank and never have dealt with this before. I’d love to hear from people who have experience with...

My clownfish recently started laying and this is their second time laying in my tank and they have laid before but not in my tank and there are a lot of eggs but only 20 hatched each time and there is complete darkness water quality is perfect but still only get a few

Looking for clownfish pair old enough and ready to spawn or that have spawned or female clown ready to spawn 2 years or older clowns only

I’m a bit confused on clownfish sex changes work… I know if you just have a pair the dominant one is female and the other is male, but what about a colony? I was under the impression that any number of clowns had one female, one male, and the rest ungendered, but I am now told that “there will...

I work at a lfs and today a customer wanted to buy the lone mai tai clown we had and put it with the mai tai he had in his tank already. He said he also had other kinds of clowns in the tank and they got along well. The question is that since our mai tai was alone, it would’ve been female...

So my female clown (I'm assuming is female cause her size) I've had for 3½ years while the smaller one (assuming male) I've had for maybe 2 years. They've been doing this, and mouthing up sand, and tailing finning (kicking) sand up also. (I know my algae is bad) But is this submission or mating?

Hello Everyone I just wanted to get your thoughts on this clownfish pair that host the corner of the tank, they have been wiggling together a lot and it seems the male has also started chasing the female a lot these past 24 hours , do you think they might be getting ready to have babies ? If so...

Have 4 pairs of breeder clowns for sale. Ideally I’d like to sell them all and the tank if someone wants it. $1200 for everything. Due to moving I need to downsize. Contact me for better video/pictures

Is this nesting behavior? She’s never shown a bit of interest in the sinularia in over 2 years. Now she’s hosting it like it’s an anemone and has a particular interest in the little hole in the middle of the zoathids. She’s even pecking at some of them. She’s also a giant ****** when you put...

Just picked up this premium clown fish and it has yellow color inside of its white band. Is this a rare effect or are there clown fish with this original coloring ? I’d like to breed this with some of my other clown fish in hopes of continuing this color way if it’s not a temporary thing

I slightly panicked for a second when I first saw a bunch of little orange dots in my aquarium right next to my ocellaris clownfish and their anemone. My immediate thought was that it was some weird algae or pest. A few seconds later I realized my clowns had laid eggs! I thought it was pretty...

I have two frostbite clowns and they are about a year or so old. They have started acting odd and I was wondering if this is possibly breeding behaviour. They used to host my return pump head however now they like hiding on a edge I have as well as they have been cleaning a few spots on the...

My clowns have been spawning for years and I finally decided to try raising them. Glad I did, there's so many interesting ones appearing! :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

My beloved pair of Gold Nugget maroon clowns gave me a nice batch of eggs after 3 years. Dad took wonderful care of them over the last week, cleaning and aerating them. I watched their development and we moved them last night on hatching night, and we have about 50 hatched so far! All swimming...

Not getting any clear answers all i keep getting is Maroon are aggressive (obvious). Ive been into saltwater maybe 6 months. Breeding clowns is a huge interest. Have bred various(even hard to breed freshwater). I purchased a few baby clowns of different colors. The snowflake is a hair bigger and...
