Did you know...? Mysis fact when feeding clownfish...

[Mr Cob]

I never really had the desire to breed but the temptation is calling me after reading all the experiences. It seems like a lot of fun!

Yup, I'm hooked! Just setting up all of the broodstock systems and finding the fish was tons of fun and another side of the hobby that was full of all kinds of new stuff. Really enjoying it.

If you bread a clutch of clowns can you keep them all together peacefully in on tank for their life or will the eventually fight.

Ace began to have problems after six or so months.

[Mr Cob]

yeah, fine until they start maturing and establish a pecking order. Honestly I have not raised any that far and am new to breeding. But I have purchased many small clowns from wholesalers and they are fine in the same tank until some start establishing dominance. 6 months seems to be about right.

Rob,
I am sorry that someone seem to try to derail your breeding project. If there is anything I can do to help let me know. Rotifer culture crash, what ever....
You really don't need to raise phytoplankton, jut get the frozen stuff. Don't need to raise newly hatch brine shrimp either. Just straight from rotifer to Otohime A.
I got several pounds of bothe Otohime A and Otohime B. I think I will never finish the Otohime A since I only raise these fish for fun.
I am trying to get next inline fish food. Ground up flake works but too much work. I am thinking of order some Golden Pearls. If you want I let you know how this turn out.

[Mr Cob]

Thanks, Minh. Appreciate it.

Right there with you on not growing phyto and brine. I'm about ready for another order of RotiGrow Nanno (are you using the same?)...

I received some Golden Pearls on a recent order, they came in as a sample. I don't have fry to test on but the 1-1.5" small males that I have seem to love it. I threw some in to the broodstock too and they also liked it. I also have Otohime A. B and C... I love this stuff and it seems to last forever!

I'm not familiar with NextInline food...?

I did not order any Otohim C. My babies is outgrwoing the Oto B. I need something else to start fo feed them. I will get the Oto C and the larger Golden Pearls

[Mr Cob]

Ahhh, I see, I was thinking "next in line" foods were a brand. Lol.

Yeah, the C is good and I also feed to broodstock. The growout tanks I have purchased designer clowns ranging from 1"-1.75" and they all eat the otoC, pearl eggs, flakes and frozen rods and mysis.

What they don't eat falls to the bottom and the corals tear it up. : ). I'm running reef in the growout stalls so 1.024 sg and the broodstock systems I'm running 1.022 sg and rotifers at about 1.017 sg.
