Clown Fish Eggs
Plse help....i have had a marine tank with a few fish and a few corals for about two years now. I recently discovered a grouping of what i believe to be eggs from my two clown fish. If anyone could help me out with how to go about caring/raising these eggs i would appreciat any advice. Ive read a bunch of literature about it but i would really like to hear from someone who has done it first hand. Thank you for ur time.

For what it's worth, you are about to embark on a difficult journey. My true percs have been spawning for quite some time, and regularly have a big cluster of healthy eggs right up to the hatching. The problem is that with other fish in the tank, the clowns will eat their own babies as they hatch if they feel that other fish will get at them.
I wish you the best of luck. I'm envious of people on here who have success hatching and raising their eggs.
