Sorry to say that these babies will not last long... About 4 months ago, we moved this pair of clowns into our display tank and they have adopted my Red BTA...and made a home! We'll watch this progress and post an update or so along the way.

Just wondering how big are your clownfish because I have had my pair of clownfish for about 8 months and they still haven’t bred .

That's tough, the female is 3" +/-, the male is small say 1 1/2"...

Update: we never did see any 'hatch' or sign of a hatch beyond observing the disappearing of the eggs...one morning there were eggs (which had grown), the next morning there were no eggs to be found, and no sign of anything new in the tank.
