      Clown fry

      Any suggestions on keeping these? It looks like they are or have hatched as there are a lot of "worm" looking spawn hiding in the nest. I am not sure I care to try but if someone has any good information on trying to rear them without too much effort pm me your cell please. They are a snowflake and piccasso paired up-Edward

      Can ya get a picture of the clutch? I'm not sure what ya mean my "worm." Sounds like a fungal infection to me. Can you see the fry's eyes through the eggs? They turn silver the day before hatch night.

      As far as advise, I recommend Joyce wilkersons book on clownfish. A bit old, but that's where I started. Just let them spawn a couple months. (Free coral food!) You're gonna need time to learn how to keep rotifer cultures for your hungry babies anyway.

      IMHE, "not too much effort" doesn't exist in raising clowns. Several daily tasks involved. But don't be daunted! Very rewarding.

      Shoot me a PM, and I can dig up some good MOFIB links for ya, if they still exist.

      I will let them run through the system, the male is cleaning them constantly as the lights clicked on the eggs looked like they had tiny hairs off them in the current, I moved the anem out of the way and see eggs waving in the current under a flashlight but really cannot get a picture of them. I looked up some inf on them... seems like too much work to mess with and raise. If there is an experienced clown guy that wants them they can come by.

      Ill stick to my painted turtle eggs, one of my females was out of the pnd today digging test holes for laying eggs.
