we have some clownfish spawning in our tank.
I was doing some reading on the importance of separating and feeding the little guys during the larval stage.
What kind of foods can I make or...
who has/ sells cultures to feed them?
(I live in NJ)
Any other info you may have is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Sorry, I don't check this thread too often.
Anyway, if serious about the subject then I highly recommend getting the book "Clownfishes A guide to their Captive, Care, Breeding & Nartural History" by Joyce D. Wilkerson
(I found Walmart to be one of the cheapest places that carried it. I ordered it through their online book store for $20)
Also, there is an excellent thread going on right now under the forum of clownfish and anemones.
The thread title is "clown spawn" by fizhstiks.
Very good thread and a lot of helpful teamwork being done.
I certainly am no expert in the subject but as that thread will help you to realize all the work that is involved.
Have fun!
