I haven't made any real updates in a while, my main tank is in "maintenance mode" and I've been focusing my aquarium time on more fishy stuff than coral stuff.

I have a nice little pair of ocellaris clowns that have been laying very regularly in their little IM Nuvo 10 that's full of weedy nem's and other softies. The female came with my large tank when I bought it and I think is a Wyoming White. The male was bought as an "ORA Hailstorm" at AC a little over a year ago. He's a very pretty mostly white fish, the pics below don't do him justice.

I got to thinking, "how hard can it be to actually raise baby clownfish?" Turns out, it's a lot of work. I didn't do a good job transferring eggs the first couple of try's, but eventually pulled the flower pot the right evening, and woke up to a bunch of free swimming larva. That was back in April, and now at the end of July, I have 9 pretty decent looking little clowns in a rearing tank, basically all wanting to all kill each other.
