Do you know how old the clownfish are? They usually start when they reach sexual maturity.

It’s not really about size, it’s age. The fish most stores sell are usually between 6-9mo old. Females can take 3 years to reach sexual maturity. Males can reach sexual maturity at 8-12mo. If you get close to the point of breeding, look up pickles guide to clownfish breeding. Good luck.

I've had my clowns for about 2 years and they haven't laid eggs yet. Just recently they started cleaning off a spot. Breeding requires a very stable and happy environment. When they finally do lay eggs a separate tank is needed to transfer the eggs to. Then, specialized food and care after that.
