I have been breeding clownfish for fun for a few years now and never had this issue so I figured I would ask for some help. Starting at around day 30 the clownfish babies are dying slowly overnight. They are raised in a 10 gallon tank and I use a seeded sponge filter. Daily 2-3g water changes. I’d there anything happening in the nitrification cycle around the 30 day mark that would tend to kill small clownfish? Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks in advance?
