i have a 3 year old, tank bred, maited pair of perks. the eggs are laid and then fanned by the male until i start to see the eyes forming. they are under a 12"-14" Purple tip anemone of about the same age. they take turns eating the sacks before they hatch regaurdless of the amount of food i give them.
this has been going on for about a year now. i dont mess with mother nature, just let it run its course. the female lays eggs about every three weeks like clockwork.

The clutch will usually hatch after 11 days if the temperature is around 76 degrees. At 80 degrees, they usually hatch after 8 days and 6 days at 84 degrees.

The babies hatch at night, I have never seen the parents eat any babies on the night of hatch. The male actually fans a little harder the night of the hatch to help them out a little. That doesn't mean they won't eat them afterwards. Since they tend to swim to the top the overflow tends to take most of them
The babies will not survive more that a couple days in your main tank. There is not enough food to keep them alive. The babies themselves are not that hard to raise in a seperate tank, the live rotifers that you need to feed them for the first two weeks on the otherhand, are very difficult. At least for me.

LOL, it's way too much work for me. I like watching the eggs grow tho. I can always tell the day they will hatch without timing them. Haven't been wrong yet.
