Title: Black Ice Clown Eggs
Post by: VikingCoral on November 06, 2019, 11:46:37
Hello! I haven't posted in a while but I have been growing coral and tank space pretty rapidly! Im up to 950 gallons!!!

My Black ice pair just laid a healthy clutch of eggs that I will attempt to raise. They are in their own biocube and the eggs are accessible. Any tips or advice would be appreciated.

I need to setup some phyto and get some pod/rotifers now!! Who has the best deals?

Been super busy lately. Quite a few from the first batch are doing well. 

They laid a second clutch that should hatch in 2 days. This second clutch of about 400-600 looks much bigger and more uniform.
