Not a good idea until you are fully setup to rear the clowns. There's a lot involved...read the thread in it's entirety that Ace posted!

well, if they spawned once, they are bound to do it again. That's pretty cool!

that's because the eggs are dead... they'll need to receive good aeration when they're away from the daddy.

Do some research. Did you read that thread? There is also lots of mention here on MAAST, Allen also posted some documentation that he wrote that is very helpful.

You should keep a journal over the next couple of months of when the eggs spawn and hatch and the time between so that you will know. It will help better prepare you for when you do decide to keep a clutch.

I can call mine to the nearest hour when they will hatch and the nearest day when they will lay.
