Clownfish Spawning?

I have a pair of Ocellares Clownfish and I recently got a green
Goniopora and they are using it as a host. There are a few other corals in the tank, 1 peppermint shrimp, some assorted snails, and a few scarlet Hermits. No other fish.

My question is my male has been vibrating by their favorite areas, and that means he wants to mate right? Well how long before the female will spawn with him?

Thanks-Blake

Never know for sure...feed heavily, temp up 82F, and watch for them to start cleaning a nesting site.

The wierd thing is they have only been in the tank for 2 days. They have been in a seperate 65 gal tank for about 1year and a half- 2years. That tank had Damsels and an array of Tangs.

Thanks-Blake
