My cinnamon clowns are laying eggs

[TravisD]

I don't really know what to do. I wasn't trying to breed them but know that there laying eggs Im going to try and make little cinnamon clowns but I haven't a clue what I'm doing

Very cool! All things being equal, they should continue to lay every few weeks. Do you think you would like to raise some of the offspring? There are some great tutorials out there. It's a fairly involved process, but neat. I think it's probably best to prepare for the next batch of eggs, since the babies require live food. Unless someone has big rotifer cultures that can be split (perhaps @luu78 )

I appreciate the quick response. Well to be honest all I have going right now is my current tank, a 20 gallon water box loaded to the gills with coral so I'm really not trying to chase little fish every where. I was really happy with just the two clown fish. Is it possible to keep my clowns and maybe gift the babies to someone more qualified. Or is that out of the realm of possibilities.

I mean there pretty good looking fish. Someone must want some.‍ I'd prefer not to see them all die.

You won't see them die! They will just become food for your tank! Super cool that the parents are breeding. Isolating the newly hatched babies is a real chore, so unless the eggs can be moved they are probably food.

Do you breed clowns?

Nope. I have a pair that I hope to breed, so I've been digging in a fair bit on the forums reading all that I can about it.
