Spawn Details
|
Pre-Spawn Behavior: |
Clownfish live in a large 20"+ ritteri anemone and can't be seen much other then when the dart out to grab food during feedings. I never really noticed any pre-spawn behavior.
|
Spawning Behavior:
|
Spawn was not witness because it always while I'm at work. I need to set up video to be able to observe them.
|
Post Spawn Behavior:
|
Post Spawn behavior is not what Ive seen in other videos. While watching them the male doesn't care for the eggs (Aerate or clean)very other. Possibly this is due to the eggs being laid on sea swirl which is in constant motion.
