Clownfish Egg Development Day Six

Clownfish Egg Development on Day 7

By Day six, approximately 30% of the eggs had shiny, reflective eyes.  By Day 7:, the eggs appear ‘spaced out’ along the glass wall, shape seems almost elongated, tiny reflective eyes seen in just about every egg.  Shimmering/reflective property of the eyes is remarkable at this stage.  Swaying in the current is dramatic.  Hatching should occur tomorrow night after lights out.
