I am collaborating with a friend to help in raising Clownfish fries after he successfully catch the fries which hatched from his Percula Pair.

Following is a video when fries were 1 day old:

They are so cute ... all huddling together.

Do they break out during feeding time?

Unfortunately, the Onyx pair did not make it :(

emoji106.pngemoji106.pngemoji106.png congrats

Thanks.

great encouragement. wish to try it, any tips?:D

I can't catch any fries after 10 attempts. Possible to share how you did it? Thanks!

Actually, my friend is the one who catch the fries after hatching. Perhaps you can try to google on how to catch the clownfish fries.

This is a collaboration effort, he is good at catching fries and I am good at raising fries :)
