It is hard lol, low flow, need to get equipment to hatch the eggs, You have to cover the tank for days while they lay the eggs, waking up in the middle of the night if necessary, even so, one day I plan to do it because it is super satisfying, I have very good videos about that but in Spanish

Oh perfect haha

@Remi Was it a rhodactis mushroom that attacked? That's very unfortunate. Is the chalice salvageable?

It is a Yuma. The chalice fall down. There is still a third alive, we will see.

If i sumped my pair of clowns, is the general consensus that a single clown, without a mate would be less aggressive? Ever since i got back into maintaining my tank like I was supposed to they just spawn constantly

Females are the aggressive ones. If you have only one, it will eventually become a female anyway.

I've got a story of how I fixed my clown for life but it doesn't work for everyone...

Sushi?

I wonder if it'd be possible to plumb it into my 120g system and still keep it gentle enough for the fry? I'd prefer to not have multiple water parameters to maintain lol. My 14 month old and this one tank take up almost all of my free time as it hahaha

Yes Mike easy to do.
Had mine, 2 tanks as one system for years.
We're all here to help you.
Although that's looking like a lot more questions coming our way. ;) ;):winking-face-with-tongue:

Sushi?

Sorta... I threw her across the room, scooped her back up, plopped her back in the tank, and now, almost 4 years later, anytime my hand goes in the tank, she hides in the back corner and the two males go with her.

It was actually kinda comical when it happened. I thought for sure she was a goner.

I had a pair of Tomato Clowns and the female turned nasty after about 8 years. She started attacking my hand when I worked in the tank. After the tenth or so time she happened to attack one of my fingers that was pointed just right and I wacked her pretty hard. Never bothered me again.

@tbrown has a pair of clownfish in the sump

I have a pair in the sump and a trio in the display.

That's how I trained my sump clowns! A well placed flick to the nose and she's more or less left me alone since. Even when I was "stealing" one of her Nems.

I think I am losing the royal pencil. Since 1 month and half I cannot put my hand or tool in the tank without him jumping non stop. Many times I was able to put the lid to block but still a total of 5 times happened. When I move the chalice this morning he went behind the tank, I put it back right away. Now I can see he changes color no more black or blue just yellow and a bruise on his body.

Does it leave my clownfish I'm attached to in good health? Lol

It may be stress Rémi, in my tank my jumper is the exquisite, 4 times already my lid has saved him from falling to the floor
