Today is a very exciting day for Jon. His clown fish have layed eggs for the second time in two weeks! That is a big deal when maintaining a salt water aquarium. It means that all the conditions are just perfect. If you look closely, the orange blob right in the center of the picture are the baby nemo's. Good job Jon! In the movie clip, you can actually see the fish laying and fertilizing the eggs. We thought is was rather cool and exciting to watch.

Nice Job Jon!!! Best of luck to having them hatch. Do you plan on selling them if they do make it?
VERY COOL!
For now they'll pretty much just be fish food. There's no way they'll survive in the tank what with the pumps and filter, not to mention the other living things in there looking for a snack.
Eventually I'd like to set up a separate hatching tank (a small 5g tank or so) and raise a batch. It'd be pretty cool to have a small tank with 100+ baby clownfish in it ... Of course, that's time, money, and space ...
Wow that is really exciting. Great job!
That is awesome Jon. I know how much work it is to create the right environment in a tank. It will be fun to watch the eggs hatch, not so fun to see them used as fish food. Have a Happy 4th of July.
Congrats to the proud Papa! Good work!
