I finally have a batch of Amphiprion ocellaris fry! This video covers the steps taken to hatch and raise the clownfish fry past metamorphosis and up to 6 weeks old.

Hatch tank:
10g tank with heater and airstone.
temp set at 76 deg F.
originally filled about 1/3 – 3 or 4 gallons of saltwater with salinity to match spawning tank.
after first week, salinity was slowly lowered to 1.024 sg and water was topped up to the full 10 gallons (adding about 1 gal per day)
night lite added on day 2 to aid in feeding, removed on day 14.

First food:
Tigger pods and Tetraselmis phyto cultures
