My clowns spawned! I am a grandpa !

Wow I have some awesome news! was looking at the tank on my nightly relaxation hour, and noticed that my clowns were very upset at a trochus snail that was cruising near their corner. They were picking at it really hard. So I decided to get closer and try to understand what was going on, just to realized that they have spawnned! IDK if is the first time but definitely is the first time I see the eggs, is too late for a picture because lights are winding down, but tomorrow for sure will take some. I am so excited, I will not try to raise them, because I don't have the infrastructure or the time.

Do you know if in a tank they may past the larvae stage?

You can follow my tank story on my build thread.

Not likely. My clownfish spawn and the fry don’t survive. The first instinct is for the fry to get to the plankton layer, so they will swim to the light. If you have an overflow, down they go. But here’s an article I was given when I discovered mine breeding. It is a good read if you ever decide to try to raise them.

Thanks, i don't have filter socks, so maybe some may survive in the sump. Pictures:
