I did successfully breed regular clowns several years ago with the assistance of someone who really knew what they were doing. It was fun. You will lose a LOT of them but that happens in nature a lot as well.
I had some live 3 weeks, I really enjoyed the experience and keep hoping they will drop another nest now that I'm ready. Last time I decided on the night of the hatch to try to keep them.
If you want some advice for raising them in the future hit up Ivan on these forums. He's always got a lot of babies he's raising. Brings them to us at SPS coral store regularly
