Think my clowns are going to spawn!

So my male clown is being weird in the back corner and like staying there, and the female has got a HUGE belly! Any other ways i can tell? And what can i do if they do spawn? Would be willing to give it a try to keep the fry alive!

 

Keep me posted, mine seem to be doing the same. As an add on not to high jack, anyone add a small clay pot to help them along? Been thinking if adding one.

 

I haven't bred anything yet but I would suggest getting a Tom aquatics nursery/hatchery. I have one (im planning on using it for seahorses, but right now it serves as a mini refugium for corals) and it just hangs on the inside of the tank. It should work pretty well if you just isolate them in there for the first few weeks after birth... Here's the URL to it on amazon worth a try for only 9.99...

Is the male biting at the nearby rocks? They do that to prep the area. Once they start spawning, they never stop! You'll have a new batch of eggs about every 10 to 14 days.

 

I suggest you read member Pickle's thread as well as get a copy of Joyce Wilkersons "Clownfishes", if you are interested in raising any fry. It's gotten easier in the last couple years but still takes research and practice.
