Very cool...

better try to get the other fish out.
or they will eat them.
when they get bigger.
big fish eat little fish.

That's the sign of a healthy tank! Great work!!

If I tried to pull the eggs out do i need to take the clowns with them? Never dealt with this before.

I would think that you would need to catch the fish also. As to keep the eggs aerated. My jawfish have spawned many times they are mouth brooders tho ,they would constantly spit the eggs out and move them around.

the way i got the other fish out i went fishing.
with a very small hook.
and a some shrimp on it.
take the barbs off or bend them down.
the hole is small will heal in about 2 weeks.

My pair spawn once a month. Doing this about a year now and they haven't figured out the "aerating" or "eating" part yet. No to mention it is too much work to harvest the eggs and get them to hatch. My Chocolate Chip Star or Turbo Snails know now to go to that spot once a month for some free caviar!!
