Thanks very much for the offer, but don't you have a baby to look after ;) - given the forecast for the next few days an ice pack may not be required :)
@alan , I wasn't aware that they stocked frozen food - I will try a few today, thanks.
They are great photos @MagicJ!
Will you be able to raise them?
Supplying captive breed clowns to Tassie, how cool is that!

@dr_schell - given the development of these, any idea when they are likely to hatch?
@MagicJ - Congratulations :D
"About a week after being laid the eggs will develop a silvery sheen to them, by this time you will be able to clearly see the larvae’s eyes through the egg sac. When the eggs look completely silver they will probably hatch that night anywhere from 45min after lights out."

I have had a busy week, so was not sure when these might have been laid.
@TheJordans - thanks for ths info. I will start doing some more research over then next few months. So, based on the eyes being clearly visible, it would seem that these should hatch in the next day or so...

Thanks @Buddy.
Now some bad news. I will be the first to admit that I have neglected the tank a bit over recent months :rolleyes
Last night I noticed that my small helio and my branching torch were not looking happy. Tonight, brown slime had taken hold of the helio and one head of the torch - and one of my hammers was not looking happy :(
I siphoned out the helio and one head of the torch - the water absolutely stank !!. An hour later the hammer is looking a bit better and the other two hammers look OK.
But, I know how quickly this can spread - I suspect that I will be looking in the tank before giving my wife a kiss at breakfast time tomorrow ;)

Sorry to hear about your corals, @MagicJ :-(
Glad to hear that they're on the mend though, and I hope that they continue to improve!
