If you want to raise the frye then start setting up another tank it can be real simple and small and get the book by Joyce Wilkerson about clownfishes this will help....and YES definately chew on Elmo's ear he has been successfull in a couple of different breeds of clowns I believe. This would be SOOOO Freakin awesome if you raised them. Please tell me you have a digital camera and can take some pics for us?

PS Get the book or talk to Elmo before you transfer the eggs to the new tank.

Hi , all, thanks Scott for getting to me. I've been a tad busy :P

My first question is, what type of species is this clownfish, and is this their first nest you are talking about?
