Here is a photo from their spawn which occurred on 9-10-09. I will update more after the hatch and my attempt at raising these little guys!

Good news! I had a 100% hatch this afternoon (9-15). They are very active compared to clownfish larvae and look like slivers of glass. Hopefully I can continue to update with good news!
 
That is awesome man! Little babies everywhere. Are they in your display or a separate tank just for them?
I have a tank seperate for the gobies and another seperate tank for their offspring.

Day 3 and no losses...so everything is going better than planned!
 
Well, the update is that thes guys are proving much harder to raise than clownfish! The best I've gotten so far is 12 days. A new batch hatched last night so I have some new things I am going to try and we'll see how it goes.
