Our first clownfish babies

  • In early 2017, with a two year old tank of 650l, we saw our clownfish pair laying eggs. They are an interesting pairing of a black ocellaris and a normal orange percula, so we decided to see if we could raise a batch of clownfish babies. With help from Jens and Jesper from Sjöfartsmuseet in Gothenburg, we got the necessary rotifer and phytoplankton culture. A bunch of coke bottles, air-pumps and LED lights later we had feeding culture ready. Two months and a lot of work later we have a school of ~25 thriving juvenile clownfish!

      I had a look at the phantom, and it is cool. On further searching I see the 'Black Photon' looks a lot like our babies, and it turns out to have very similar parents. In the case of the 'Black Photon', the parents are a 'Black Darwin Ocellaris' and a 'Black Onyx Percula'. So a bit more black than with our case, but still a hydrid between two sub-species. I wonder if ours will get as dark as the 'Black Photon'. The bigger ones are almost as dark already, I think. See www.seaandreef.com/marine-ornamental-fish/clownfish/black-photon

Such a great and loving video, it doesn't seem like the thing to make you cry but the music and the amazing footage really did it for me. Thats just amazing how quick they grow up from being a yellow ball to having eyes, and a heart, and then leaving the rock, then getting mouths and then and you can see the colors starting to form.

    cue the nemo references! actually went to the great barrier reef and failed to find a single clown fish. The guys that took us out there said that clownfish became more endangered after the movie because all the kids now want one.... irony?

    • @CraigTavernerAmanzi
      @CraigTavernerAmanzi  Před 6 lety +441

      Certainly is ironic. But clownfish are also much more commonly bred in captivity these days, so it is now hopefully rare to see wild caught specimens in the fish shops.

      About a month or so before Finding Dory came out our Petco put signs all over the saltwater tanks that said:
      "Blue Tangs and other saltwater fish like Dory are not recommended for beginners. Talk with us to determine which fish is best for you."
      I asked about the signs and they explained what happened with Finding Nemo, and now they won't sell any saltwater fish to ANYONE unless the person knows what they're doing. One associate told me a woman came in with her son and got pissed he wouldn't sell her a "Nemo fish" to put in a fish bowl...full of fresh tap water.

      I know, right? Especially since saltwater fish are the opposite of cheap, and even if you are rich, do you really want your fish to die in a week or so (or less than a day if you're really bad at it) and buy a new one for your kid EVERY time?
