Spawn #33 – Starting midday on 6/9, the first larvae started showing signs of metamorphosis and settlement; white spots on the heads of the Lightnings are among the first signs; most are through meta today. Spawn #34 – Tonight is the scheduled hatch night; I used the 4 ml H2O2 / 0.5 gallon broodstock water […]

It is now a fact – big Lightning Maroon Clownfish hatches are happening in the morning. I went to bed sometime after 4:30 AM on June 1st, and a few hours later, around 8:30, the kids woke me up. So, I went down to look at the BRT – just a handful of larvae. I […]
It’s the night of 5/31 going into 6/1/2014, and right before 2:00 AM (6/1) I pulled the tile for the sanitizing H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) dip. While going through the 15 minute treatment at 4 ML per 0.5 gallons of broodstock water, I wiped out the BRT which was used for Spawn #32 and refilled it […]
Based on my calculations, 5/20 is the night we’re due to first have hatches. Having moved all the fry from Spawn #30 into a BRT “on the system”, I wiped down and drained their BRT, and refilled it with water from the Lightning Maroon’s broodstock aquarium. The tile with eggs (huge nest, 4″ X 2″) […]
As near as I can tell, a lot of eggs likely hatched from the PNG White Stripe Maroon Clownfish pair’s 2nd spawn. There are probably less than 50 eggs left. Of course, this was a tiny nest to start with (compared to other Maroon nests) so I opted to just leave the few remaining eggs […]
I decided to try something different this time…I’d been putting it off but figured “might as well”. I decided to try snagging a hatch with the Vossen Aquatics Larval Snagger (aka. Larval Trap). Thursday night, the 24th, was officially the 6th night post spawn and assuredly I’d get a hatch. I reconfigured the broodstock tank […]
In short, Spawn #29 was not pulled on Monday, the 14th, as I had initially suspected. Looking at it, I opted to wait until Tuedsay, the 15th, to pull it, 7th day post spawn. I used well-aged new saltwater which was 1.026; same as the broodstock water. Water temp may have been a couple degrees […]
While I was away, Mike did a great job with the fishroom and the baby Lightnings from Spawn #27. He got two hatches out of them, which means once again, these eggs hatched out over THREE nights. Crazy. When I stopped by Mike’s place on 4-3-14, he had maybe 50-100 pre-settlement offspring in one tank, […]
By March 21st, both Mike and I were at zero for larval maroons from batch #26…we both crapped out. It’s now the evening of March 25th, 2014, and Mike left my fishroom about 25 minutes ago with a bucket and a tile; I’ll be out of town at the NEC convention this week followed by […]
Talking with Mike on Friday, as best as we can figure out Spawn #25 was put down Saturday, February 22nd. This fits the timeline…come Friday night (Feb 28th) we’d be at 6 days post spawn, which is the earliest eggs hatch. I opted to wait until the 7th night, which was last night (Saturday, March […]
