Did my Clown Fish (get bussy)?

[Script_Kitty]

woke up this morning to find this in the tank.

It stared off inside the carpet anenome that my clown fish have turned into a love nest.

Could thse be clown fish eggs?

If so, any recomendations on how to protect them?

Not eggs, kind of looks like a pile of pellets

With time, good food and water quality your clowns will more then likely lay, mine are doing so as I type this. They will not if I feed sparingly and hold off on water changes though. For future reference you will not be able to rear the fry in your DT, they require their own tank and special food and a whole heck of a lot of time lol. This is what clown eggs look like also (not my pic)

Yeah it’s definitely a pile of pellets, take it out with a net or something.

Is there a way to tell apart a male from a female clown? I've had 2 clowns for 6 months and one seems to be slightly bigger than the other is that an indicator of whos male and whose female?

Yes the female will be larger then the male
