As I was finishing a long overdue tank cleaning and water change, my eyes caught something unusual on the rocks. My clownfish had laid eggs!

Excitedly, I drove down to my favorite fish store and when I told the staff about my good news, I received a very different reaction than I was expecting. I was informed that breeding clownfish would be too much work, that I’ll never keep them alive, it would be a hassle to set all the necessary gear up, and so on. For me, this read as a fun challenge to take on!

Sometimes, life takes you in directions that you don’t expect. I have now been breeding clowns for a year and a half for my business, Clownfish Corral. I’m looking forward to sharing my learning experiences, both ups and downs, with you as I continue my journey! See you on the 20th!
