I had to remove half my rock in order to capture a coral-nipping fish. When I looked in the bucket that had held some rock, I saw around 100 tiny fish fry swimming around. I think that they are the ORA "masked gobies" (personatus).

Check out the video:

Well, no plans actually. I don't have plankton so it would be impossible to raise the fry. Until then, they are fish food! My cleaner wrasse was snapping them up with relish.

I bet there is someone around here who could manage the live foods necessary to raise the fry. It would be hard to collect another batch of fry though, since I'm not even sure where the nest of eggs was! I had a whole bucket full of rocks in there. I believe ORA is the only company to have raised the fry.
