Clownfish Fry Raising Journal Update 05/24/12

Thanks Corailline! I think it is finally safe to say that we figured it out. It definitely was frustrating in the beginning but I'm glad we stuck with it. Now if we could just get one of our other pairs to lay, it would be awesome!!

 

Thanks for liking! We do have some experience in shipping and are looking to perfect our methods by the time we have some of our fancier clowns laying.

 

I know they have those breathable bags now to exchange oxygen instead of putting air inside the bag. I don't know what they are called though lol.

 

Oh wow, you guys are located so close to me. I frequent both Gill's and Deep Sea. Bought my clown from Deep Sea, but I don't think it was tank raised.

 

I think they're just called Kordon breather bags (Kordon is the manufacturer). They seemed to work really well. We've purchased from another breeder who used these bags and saved a lot of money on shipping as a result. She has beautiful percula variants... Www.donisreef.com

 

If it was an ocellaris, more than likely it was tank raised. If you bought it within the past month or two, there's a good chance it came from us. Post a pic if you'd like and I'll see if I recognize it.

 

Doni is how I know about the bags lol. I got my snowcasso pair from her. It looks like you have a snowcasso from her as well.

 

Was really small when I got him and was more "orangey" back in November. It was sold to me as an Ocellaris, but after his color has been forming, I'm pretty sure he's actually a Percula.

 

That looks like a perc to me with just the eyes alone lol

 

Yeah, probably a wild caught perc. I didn't start selling to deep sea creations until about 2 months ago also.
