Hi,
How do clowns breed? Do they attach their eggs to something? do they carry them? Does anyone know the process?
Thanks
Steve

If you are refering to clown/anemonia fish, which is a damsel, they lay a nest of eggs attached to a rock. The eggs are either bright yellow or orange in color (some species it's almost a reddish hue) when first layed.

The clown trigger, if it's like other triggers, would dig out an inverted cone in the sand/rubble and lay a ball of eggs.
