Hi everyone, my two Ocellaris clownfish laid eggs yesterday. I had hoped to keep them, but the parents ate the eggs. This was their first attempt, and some people told me they would likely breed again in one to two weeks. How can I ensure that they do so? They are only a year old, and I've been involved in this hobby for only a year as well.
 
Just keep doing what you are doing.
 
Feed them well. Mine do it every two weeks, the poor male never gets away from his rock. They will eat the bad eggs.
