    Just noticed last night that they have quite a batch of eggs attached to the glass right under their anemone /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif  Cute little buggars with their big eyes [​IMG]

    Let me know if you want to raise them Fawn. I can hook you up with some rotifers in about a month. I plan on using paste. Much easier & more nutrition.

    Craig, I think I'm going to move them + anemone into my 35g frag tank......I'm sure it'll take them awhile to spawn again after the move, but I would definitely be interested, although not sure what the paste method is /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif Please tell me more or send me a link! I definitely have some reading to do before/if I attempt this!

    Reef nutrition makes a paste called rotigrow. You feed that to your rotifers & babe brine shrimp instead of greenwater.

    It is much higher in fatty acids & other essential nutrients. Breeders who have started using it have double the quality & quantity of their hatches. Your store it in your fridge & feed it to your rotifers & brine shrimp. It is about $80 a bottle, but it goes a long long way. I can just sell you part of one of my bottles.

    The best book you can buy is Clownfishes by Joyce Wilkerson. You can also check out www.mofib.com. It is a website just for breeders.

    Oranges are a little harder to raise, but dont be deterred, give it a try & I will help you all I can.

    Read the article you posted on FB, very interesting and wow, sounds sooo much easier than cultivating green water. Definitely going to try and get into this, will just have to wait and see how long it takes the pair to spawn again after I get them moved. Thanks for the info!
