My Clowns Spawned

I was just about to leave work when I looked over at the tank and noticed that my Ocellaris clowns were practicing laying eggs a lot longer than usual. I went over to the tank and noticed the female had her ovipositor (sp?) out and was laying eggs. These clowns I got from one of JHardman's clutches. This is so cool, I never thought these two would spawn.

We got a short video of them laying the eggs. It was taken with a camera phone so the quality isn't so great, but you get the idea. I think you have to have real player to watch it.
