I have a piece of tile in the tank for my Black & White Misbar Occ Clowns to lay their eggs on. They are roughly a year now. My female goes down by the tile and flips her tail around and throws sand and has made kind of a divit in the sand right in front of the tile. She also opens her mouth very wide on occasion and then shakes rapidly. I have noticed the male doing this as well. I have witnessed bouth of them shaking rapidly, but mostly the male. They also have been cleaning the tile off sometimes with their mouths and stomachs on occasion. This isn't something that occurs all the time though. Is this a pre-spawning act? They are the only ones in the tank other than a Pearly Jaw that never leaves his hole. I intend on buying the Clownfishes book, but haven't been able to bring myself to purchase a new one for the price, I'm cheap. (lol) If anyone has one laying around, I'd be glad to take it off your hands for a reasonable price. I have had a BTA in there since they were added, but they do not get in it, they'd rather host the skimmer pump. I have been leaving the lights on though for about 14 hours a day and have increased their feedings. If anyone has any thoughts I would greatly appreciate it. I want to raise the babies and have everything set up, just waiting for them to lay the eggs. Is there anything you can do to help out the process, or to help them spawn? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, J
