    Clownfish fry

    My Ocellaris Clownfish pair seem to have laid eggs. Is there any hope of keeping the fry alive?

    I have a 240 gallon aquarium with a porcupine puffer, sailfin tang, regal tang, purple tang, threadfin butterfly, queen angel, flame angel, and a lemonpeel angel. I imagine the butterfly fish is going to be the biggest problem.

    The eggs are on the back wall of the aquarium next to my carpet anemone, so I can't simply pick them up and move to a quarantine tank. I do have a 20 gallon quarentine setup with a sponge filter. I am going to be home recovering from surgery all of next week, so I will be able to move them to the new tank quickly once they hatch (if I notice soon enough).

    The basic answer is, "No." At least, not in that environment. If you want more information regarding raising Anemonefishes from eggs there are Forums/websites devoted to that topic, not to mention a fairly good selection of books.
