Good Afternoon from the UK!

My tank has finally cycled and I have added a beautiful pair of Clownfish(mocha + OG) that look just about the size to start breeding.(please see attached and let me know what you think).

My plans are to buy a good sized anemone and a couple of corals soon to make them feel more comfortable.

I am looking for some advice and tips/tricks to set them up for success, any info will be more than welcome :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

when you say breeding, do you mean you want to raise the fry? Its easy to set up a love nest and they'll probably eventually hook up, but raising the fry is not easy. It requires a seperate tank to raise them , and another tank to raise rotifiers to feed the fry.

Yeah I want to raise the fry, I have another small tank to use to put the fry in and with rotifers could I not use two small containers ?

Any tips on setting up a love nest:smirking-face:

If you can get an anenome that vibrates a little and spins around in a circle, I know that's what they do in the Austin Powers movies.

Keep things consistent and feed them well. Mine have been laying eggs in a pretty set cycle for a few months now. But as others have said raising them is the real challenge. I have yet to set up a blacked out 10gal tank and the food cultures (rotifers, etc..)
