I just bought two tank raised oscillaris clowns. They came from a tank with about 20 other oscillaris clowns that were all a little bit lighter in color than the two I chose. I'd been eying them for about a month and can't believe they were still there. One of them is about 2 inches long and the other is probably 1.5 inches. I didn't think they were sexually mature because they're still pretty small, but from the moment I put them in the quarantine tank, they started meticulously cleaning one of the PVC pipes that I put in there for them and then started doing that rapid shaking thing that clownfish do when they lay and fertilize eggs. I didn't see any eggs, so I wonder if these are just horny fish trying to get it on early haha. Anyone else ever experienced anything like this?
At the very least, I'm really excited that I wound up with such a good pair that it seems will have a good chance of mating and spawning in the future.
Any info, as always, is appreciated.
