Ok. Lining up next clown already. Lol.

My buddy has an onyx perc. No mate.

I'm going to buy her and try pair her with another standard perc.

Not prepared to pick her up yet.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Thought crossed my mind... Maybe I'm better to stick with OCs for species continuity.

Then if the day comes in my lifetime... I can selectively breed between them.

Unless of course they will actually interbreed as things say on the net.

At least he is only talking to himself...not the fishes. So maybe a little sanity remains somewhere.

Thanks!

I am hoping through trial (and not so much error) that something positive will come of this... Some day.

Not to worry, it only starts to get hairy when you make multiple accounts and start taking to yourself .

Subscribed, always been interested in the subject but I've never had any luck!

Toughest part is to get them spawning.

A lot of books and websites are dedicated to clownfish spawning. But you have to read between the lines, as no "expert" will share everything.

We have accomplished various techniques to enhancing spawing, diet, and grow out. One thing we have found, there is not 1 sure fire way to do it. I can attest to that as I followed a known working technique for my darwins, but had to change a few things before pre-hatch (took a year to figure it out) to get them to survice the first 48 hours.
