Re: Rearing Picasso Percula Clownfish!

They're so darn cute when they're that small...

I wonder how my black ocellaris would feel about a new clown in the tank...

They have a VERY good appetite! I worry about feeding them too much.

LOL

Not exactly rebellious issues but they are mean! I think they are part piranah... The head band must give them a headach because they get really cranky once the white begins to appear

Most lone clownfish enjoy having a 'friend' just as long as you don't put two females together.

I just bought Livi's first Dr. Seuss books Monday. She already loves Cat in the Hat...at least the first half anyway. That's about as much as she has an attention span for.

Re: Rearing Picasso Percula Clownfish!

I think I enjoyed reading them to my daughter as much as she enjoyed listening . I can't wait until I have grandkids so I can read them again. LOL~

Does that pattern on it represent something in chinese?

Yeah, Grandma spoils her rotten. She spent the night with her last night and came home with a giant bag of clothes!

I don't know but the pattern reminds me of a stylized version of the Tournee du Chat Noir painting.

Re: Rearing Picasso Percula Clownfish!

Doni, I don't know how you get those great close ups! The fish look great. My close ups are not very good and I don't know how to put a picture on a post so I put some fry pics in my gallery. My lone 22 day old fry got his second stripe and the second spawn is doing great. Good luck and thanks for the inspiration.
Premnas. Now to get the chrysogasters to spawn...that would be something!
