I have a pair I don’t think they know what breeding is.

Hi and welcome to R2R! Here you’ll find people to be friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Hopefully you’ll start a build thread. We’d love to see your build as it progresses.

10 years ago I had a pair of maroon clowns that became an item and they had a sebae anemone they were being hosted by. I never could get them to lay eggs but they were hard to separate from each other.

Hello, and welcome to the channel.

No, always on the rock next to the bubble tip they host. I should put a tile in the tank, maybe they would lay the eggs on that.

try inserting a terracotta flower pot next to the spawning site and they will eventually lay inside or on the pot.

worthwhile using 2 or 3 so they have a choice and won't get upset by the removal of the pot with eggs.

may be worthwhile switching their diet as there's a possibility the eggs are not viable. i achieved best results when feeding my pair with high quality pellet food
