So I see all these people breeding clownfish, so I said why not try it out. So I set up a small 10 gallon tank

For filtration I have a aquaclear 30. I do 30% water changes weekly siphoning out the poop that's at the bottom. Do my CUC I have just in hermit crab. I have about 4 pound of live rock also for filtration. I let it cycle for 2 week testing water every once in a while. In that 2 weeks time I fed the tank a little to get it used to feeding a lot. I then added a 3 inch midnight clown and 1.25 inch flurry clownfish.

I keep the tank at 82 degrees and at 1.020 salinity. I have lights on for 12 hour 6:30am-6:30pm at 630am I feed a few pellets then at 300pm I feed fertility frenzy then pellets again at 600. The clownfish both sleep together in the pot at night. It going super good so far. Any questions just ask.
