They did it again. Kind of sad. Any way to stop them from laying eggs? Clown condoms?

Most of us just enjoy the eggs as free nutrition for all other fish

Why is it sad? I would be happy that I provided excellent care for my clowns.

you may one day have the urge to raise them up one day and sell them or trade them to a LFS.

Cycle of life, those eggs feed other life in your tank. Great thing! Even in the wild maybe only a few of those eggs ever make to even a juvenile clown.

Why don't you move up from clowns (easy) to something a little more challenging
