Must be that time of the year, one of my pairs laid eggs a few days ago... big nest. the next day it was only 1/2 the size so I figured they were not viable. Today I get home and the place where my clowns laid their eggs is now visible (was under the nem) and I see dozens of little eyes staring back at me. We went off the store to get some food for the fry, trying to hatch it now and I just turned the lights off in my tank. I understand it takes 30-45 minutes after lights out for the fry to start appearing. Should be interesting as the parents are black/white and orange/white occs. Did you manage to capture any of your fry and raise them?
