Well only one larva dead today, but that is bound to happen with some of them.  The tank is still full of smiling rotifer gobblers.  Today I found some 2.5 day old clowns but I didn't take any pictures, the cool thing was that they were beginning to get pigments on their tails.  Here are some pictures of 1.5 days post hatch in a larval clownfish.

Thanks for looking, I'm going to post pictures of the larvae everyday so that everyone can see how they develop and once I'm finished I'll post the best picture from everyday in one post so that everyone can quickly see how they developed.

Here are some pictures the first pictures are of the clowns at 48 hours, the next are them at 60, then pictures of 84 hours old, and finally the clutch laid yesterday.



 

 

 
60 hours- Note these pictures were taken of a dead larva, I believe that it was damaged during siphoning

 

 

 
84 hours

 

 

 

 
And my gigantic clutch of eggs

Well I had another 100% hatch three days ago.  I have only lost about 150-200 larvae.  To my surprise today I found another clutch of eggs .  It's the same size as my last clutch.  The best thing is that it has only been 9 days since my last spawn!!!!!!!!!
