No matter how many times I see a video from you. It's still amazing!

Thank you for the kind words Jay

OZONE 100 mg/l-
I will be adding ozone (generator, dryer & ORP controller)to my growout system soon. I was torn between either a large UV or an OZONE. I chose the OZONE due to a lot less maintenance and the fact that it adds oxygen to the water. My extremely overstocked growout tank will benefit from that for sure!
I will install it in conjunction with my current Octopus DDNW 250 skimmer.

8 days old and a few hours prior to hatch!

Tonight I pulled a spawn for hatching.

They are 8 days old and will hatch within hours of these photos :bouncer:

OMG!
Those are some amazing photos Doni!
The second one would make a great wallpaper

 

[BarbMazz]

I LOVE the "Eye Phase" LOL

 

[vdituri]

Look at all those little eyes filled with hope and wonder.
Such a miracle.

Thank you again for sharing Doni.

If I could get "logged" into her computer I'd do that for her to see when she wakes up in the morning! Man that would be SWEET!!

thanks for the pics Doni! I showed that to Julie and she thinks they are just TOO cute!!

If I KNEW they would be safe I'd get a pair from ya but I can't make myself risk them in my 90g with one clown already in there... :cry1:

 

[MarvinsReef]

Doni, how many spawns are you working on now? we haven't seen pics of the newer ones...

 

[Woodstock]

Thanks everyone I'm glad you like the photos.

Marvin, I have skipped a few spawns here and there for various reasons but the above is spawn #11. I will try to take some progressive growth photos of this spawn since they are located in a tank that is easily accessible... the last few spawns were in an end tank and it was next to impossible to get decent pics there.

Wow Doni that is incredible!

 

[Woodstock]

Cool isn't it Frankie!

I had a decent hatch from them. There appears to be 200-300 swimming around this morning. I did see some dead ones on the bottom of the tank but overall I am happy with this hatch.

Doni the Spawn Queen





It has a "Ring" to it eh?

 

[BigAl07]

On a SERIOUS note....

if they stay "together" as a family (in a larger tank of course) how many could you keep together? Let's say in something like a 90g system? If it was CLOWN ONLY?

 

[Woodstock]

LOL~

I'm not sure about the maximum number of clownfish per tank but I currently have as many as 200 in a 20 gallon :look:

Clown Police!!!!!!! LOL
