Hi All
Just wanted to post up my second attempt at raising Lightning Maroon clownfish . First attempt only ended up with 6 now 11 weeks old, second I have around 42 at 7 weeks old. Even have some reverse colours mostly white with dark fins.

Congratulations! Keep up the good work!!!
 
That is really good. Maroon's are harder to raise typically as well.
Thanks, yes I’ve read that. They also like to fight so I have to be careful cleaning so not to move anything out of place otherwise territory fights break out.
 
Congrats! I hope my pair (which was very hair to pair up) will eventually start producing eggs. I look forward to seeing you post updates when they grow up a little more.
 
Introduced the babies to a BTA and they love it. They are growing but slowly, switching from Otomime B2 to Ocean Nutrition Prime reef flakes crushed up. I think these guys will be 6 months old before they are of a size to leave home.

OMG! They are adorable! Congrats!
 
The babies are doing great, a question for you. These are from Lightning Maroons parents, a few babies have stripes , quite a few Lightning pattern then we have quite a few with dark maroon heads and fins with all white bodies and variations of. Some also look like they are reverse lighting- white body with maroon band .
Question is what do I call them when selling them on ? Lightning Maroons and variations off or what else?
Thanks

You will always see variations in coloration and markings.

You may be able to sell off the clowns with the best lighting presentation for a decent price.

Job well done they are beautiful.
