[ml708]

Do most breeders only keep the fish they are intending to breed in a species only setup?

In a community tank with other species of fish present, are eggs likely to be eaten?

the parent will guard the egg & usually tang, angel, wrasse, clownfish etc will not eat clownfish egg except some type of butterfly fish ...
