    Default Clown eggs

    FINALLY!!!!!! So tonight I was looking at my tank and noticed that my clowns finally laid eggs. I have had the pair for over 3 years and this is the first time I have noticed any eggs. They laid the eggs under a piece of old dead open brain coral that up at the top of the tank where the GBTA is. They have been liking that spot recently since the GBTA made its home there.

    The question I have is regarding flow on the eggs. My MP40 is on the right side of the tank and the eggs ae on the left side of the tank. I can see the eggs moving in the current and am worried about them. Should I be or will they be ok in the current? I want the eggs to hatch and possible raise them if possible.

    Can anyone that has had clowns lay eggs before help me with them? I have a 10 gallon tank that I will set up when the hatch. I have a hang on back filter for it. Will this be ok? Also what do the newly hatched babies eat?

    Lots of reading, preparation, patience, are needed to start.. you will likely not be ready to raise them anytime soon if you have not already prepared for them. do a search for my old thread.. there are also a couple of articles on line.. LOTS of work
