Didn't you plan on trying to breed fish Rev?
Now is your chance! I will take a pair of the offspring for genetic testing

HAHAHA Steve your right! Thanks everyone and yes I have wanted to try to breed clowns. Those pics of little tanks full of babies is a dream of mine.

 

[MarvinsReef]

nice... congrats Rev... keep us posted...

 

[ReeferBen]

Cool! I wish mine would start laying eggs...I think my algae blenny is bothering them lol.

Good luck on raising some.

 

[revhtree]

Thanks and I will!

The book I have is:

Conditioning, Spawning, and Rearing of Fish with Emphasis on Marine Clownfish by Frank H. Hoff.

What do you think of this book?

 

[TANKSALOT]

I live about 45 minutes away from ORA and have been there and seen the process.
To look into a 600 gallon tank and see thousands of Clowns is amazing !

I too would like to have the opportunity to try one of these days.

Keep us posted...

Here is a PIC from ORA

 

[revhtree]

THAT is just plain awesome!

 

[TANKSALOT]

Yes it is...... now picture about 50 - 600 gallon tanks and they all look like that !!!

Maybe we could have a Reef2Reef tour at ORA. I would be happy to set it up.

I havent read that one Rev but I am sure it'll be good. I read and liked this one,

Amazon.com: Clownfishes (9781890087043): Joyce D. Wilkerson: Books

 

[revhtree]

Ben thanks I just ordered that book.

 

[TANKSALOT]

I also have the same book as Ben. I have browsed through it. But haven't read it in depth yet. So far it has appeared to be a very good book.
