Ya, to bad I cant get some of them out to you Myka. I may have to arrange the pipe so it can be removed to try raise some. At the moment, its part of the base of the tanks structure.

When I move the clowns back to the cube, {no pipe house}, they never laid any eggs. The same day their pipe was back, they groomed it and she laid them that night. I finally watched the whole thing, with her laying them and then him fertilizing. Amazing to watch.

So my sps cube is designed around their pipe home, for them. :mrgreen: Spoiled fish. My pair of chromis & little mandarin are in a separate tub for now and not sure if I will place them back in the cube or just leave the clowns there alone.

Here is a couple pics I tried with my cheapy digital & a mag glass. :lol: You can see their little eyes. Attachment 2969

thats pretty money. i would just leave them and see how they do. its really no different from nature. only the strong survive.

That must be the near hatching stage, as they are gone this morning.

Ya, they won't survive if you don't remove them to raise them. They are just too small.

Awesome pics of them hard at work!! Did you ever see any of them swimming last time?

Doug, how often do your clowns lay eggs?
I was hoping for a few days between batches to get some tank maintenance done ( My clown has death in her eyes when she's protecting her eggs) but my clarkiis are puting down a new batch the day after the old bunch hatches.
