thanks mike for the awsome pair of snowflake clowns..

 

[mike13oy]

You are welcome Tommy. I like them a lot because they have blck dots in their middle white bar. They have lots of growing to do.

Oh very nice.

Now tear it down and move to the NW side so I can come sit in front of it nightly.

Here is my bangaii breeding tank. Extra males are in holding places ready to get swap out with males carry eggs. LOL
Matt Pedersen was stunned when he saw this tank and took a lot of pics. LOL

nice job with this. Have you had any spawn yet or are they still growing out?

They stop because i move them to this setup. Not worry about them. very busy breeding clownfish right now. I got 4 clown pairs spawning every 20days.

 

[Jaypilot]

congrats on all the clowns you have come along way in the last year with your breeding project. I hope to be right there with you soon.

Thanks
You will get there soon. Are you culturing rotifers right now?

 

[Jaypilot]

no i am not culturing rots right now. I plan on letting my first bunch of eggs go or giving them to you, unless if its my cardinals that breed first then I will have time to get all that set up.

Hey Mike!

Congrats on your success. I sure hope you succeed getting the white cap to mate and spawn. Good luck!

Mark, Thanks again for the A. Leucokranos. I will try to find her a mate(orange skunk) and see if they will pair up.

I'm a fan of your breeding rack, very space efficient.
My own setup consist of 5 20gal each with a pair in it and only 1 pair is breeding.

Would you put juveniles "broodstock to be" in such small spaces tho? I've heard about aquarium size restricting growth but i have no first hand knowledge of this

What kind of paint did you use to make your separator?

 

[mike13oy]

What kind of paint did you use to make your separator?

"Krylon Fusion for Plastic". You can get it at Walmart.

 

[mike13oy]

Here is my A. Leucokranos i just bought. Its hard to find another one so i decided to pair her up with a skunk clown. So far so good and she didn't kill the skunk yet. X finger and hope they pair up soon. They are still very young so i think i have to wait 2 years to see them spawn. LOL

TAKING A BREAK ON BREEDING clownfish because i have disease outbreak in my 300g and wipe out many of my spawning pairs. I bought some new clowns in and that is where disease came from. Disconnect my breeding system from my 300g and im doing the treatment right now. They are not looking good.
Few pics of RIP clowns:
