WTB - Livestock Clownfish babies

[afboundguy]

Anyone breeding clownfish that might have 5-10 babies for sale in the next few months?

My pair of clowns lay egg sometimes twice a month, haven’t been interested in breeding them but it has peeked my curiosity. I’m planning to do some research and maybe go for it. From what I’ve seen it shouldn’t be complicated but will see I guess , I’ll keep you posted

I have a breeding pair too just haven't been able to try and raise them. I've tried catching the larvae when they hatch a few times with no luck unfortunately but maybe I should get off my butt and give it another shot!

Tagging along!

Me first!!!

for what I’ve seen I believe you need to remove the eggs a day before hatching and put them on a tank with a bubbler fanning them , and of course food to be able to feed the babies which I’m sure you got that down doc ! Lol I may go for it not sure. I’m wondering if feeding copepods would do it ?

Awesome thanks! I wasn't sure if you were still breeding them but thought you took a break...

@Axel C. was over purchasing some coral from me and he had some pictures he was showing me of how he breeds them. Maybe he has some available?

At the moment I only have 5-year-old Picasso clownfish. I should have Lightning Maroons babies in a couple months.
I do have like 20 pairs of different species however the only ones producing are the Lightning Maroons.

when I'm ready to sell I for sure will post on BRS

My recommendation is try and get a small tile in the spot they lay, in between clutches. Thats what I started doing when I was raising mine.

You want to be feeding rotifers for the first week or so.
Theyre pretty simple to culture

I have tried that several times and they lay them everywhere besides the tile and then flip me the middle fin...
