    Hello Everyone,

    I have to say that today feels like one of the most rewarding days for me in this hobby as of yet.

    I came home today from work (where I am the only cook on Sundays and our restaurant is insanely busy) and I was exhausted. Yesterday my bike tire went flat so I had to walk home from work today in 103 degree weather. Needless to say I was exhausted from working 11 hours and then walking home.

    I came home and saw that my girlfriend (who is against the tank in general due to the cost and my sheer obsession over it) cleaned the 3 viewing panels of the tank. When I looked closer I noticed...

    THAT MY CLOWNFISH FINALLY SPAWNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    These clowns have given me so many headaches! First they would have nothing to do with each other. Then once a pair, they would host nothing in the tank! I tried 3 different anemones over the course of 8 months until they decided to host in the original nem in the tank! But finally, they have spawned little orange eggs on the rock in front of the nem!

    Sorry if this post is so long, but I am just extremely excited! Here are some pics to get you guys excited as well.

    Thanks everyone. I dont think I will raise the fry yet (I dont have a tank set up to dedicate to this and they are only common misbar oscellaris clowns which dont have much demand around my parts). I will keep the updates coming though and thanks again guys.
