Clown fish spawned
It looks like my black ocellaris clown fish in my 180 gallon tank decided to spawn today, and right in front of me (kids these days, LOL). I got a few pics of the female laying eggs and the male fertilizing them. You can see some of the orange eggs in the below pics.
I just wish they would have picked a better spot than under their anemone. With all that activity right under his peddles, the anemone got pretty PO’d and is about ½ closed right now.
Between the Banggai cardinals spawning every 4 weeks, and now these clown fish, I’m going to need a few more grow out /QT tanks for any fry that make it.
If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

That's awesome:) I just stripped 2 more female peacocks of their (large) broods, so i feel your excitement.
Finally reached 6 tanks... oh god, this addiction is getting serious. 75g mbuna tank, 65g gold severum, 55g OB peacock breeding colony, 30g(36x18) growout, 20 long Dwarf Alto's, 10g fry tank.
If I die young bury me in... An 8x2x2 with versa tops and a large sump for adequate filtration;)

That is amazing - few people can breed marine fish; that is really something special! Best of luck

Neat! Good luck with the little ones Cliff.
If it's called tourist season why can't I shoot them?
Brutal honesty will be shown on this screen.
I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
Tolerance is a great thing to have, so is the ability to shut up.
