As much as i love the prospect of keeping every one of them, I physically cannot.
So yes, I will be selling them. A friend of mine asked for a couple before they were even hatched 
and the rest are to be sold to where I work. I can make sure they get good homes

Day 23
Baby count: 8
All of the babies (minus the two smallest) have now got at least the outlines of their third stripe if not the whole stripe. The littlest baby seems to be doing a little better, he had been lingering away from the others because they would chase him away, but now he's been swimming closer to the anemone. Still not going up to eat flake food yet though...
I'm a little worried about the second to smallest baby. He's been swimming in a corner in the opposite side of the tank for the last couple days.. Only leaves to eat BBS. He is doing similar behavior as Boss was before I put the anemone in. Maybe I'll buy him his own little anemone for that corner
Another water change today, salinity checked out at around 1.0255, lowered to 1.024
Another comparison between littlest baby and one of the larger ones:
Clutch 4: Day 5
Little silver developing around their eyes
Not sure how I managed this shot... I WAS cleaning that tank today and slightly moved the eggs closer so they'd be easier to photograph. What a difference it made! Maybe i'll do an egg count later
And a closer shot of them and their little eyes:
Not quite sure they'd enjoy the trip across the ocean

Computer all back up and working now
Darn viruses
I nearly lost everything on it.
Day 24
Baby Count: 8
Nothing new to report. Littlest baby has started to hang out with his big brothers now, swimming a round with them. Still not eating flake... He better start with it soon...
Boss:
Day 25
Baby Count: 8
I finally gave up waiting for the second to smallest baby to get away from his corner. So, I went in and herded him over to the others. Since then, he's like a whole other fish. Swimming all around with the others instead of swimming in one spot in a corner... It's like he lost them before and was waiting to find them again. Such odd little fish.
Clutch 4
Day 6:
More silver present on their eyes
Day 7:
Even more Silver, entire egg lightened up in color a little bit
Tomorrow's hatch night Setting up the tank again tomorrow. Hope everything goes better this time!

Day 26
Baby Count: 8
Woke up and second to smallest baby is back in his corner. I'll just let him be there for now, the rest of them are constantly bickering with each other so maybe he just doesn't want to be involved with that Regardless, he's moving around a lot more than he was prior to yesterday.
Littlest baby is finally getting a teeny bit of his third stripe.
Still trying to get them off of BBS, but the two little ones still show no interest in flake. I think i'm going to start skipping BBS altogether certain days, and see if it helps at all.
The larger ones seem to have slowed with their pigment gain, and are now just growing large in general. They are getting much bulkier.

Clutch 4: Day 8
Very silver eyes now, hatch night tonight
Setting up the tank shortly, and since it gets dark so early this time of year, turning out the lights for them earlier than usual so hopefully I can check up on them later tonight. Being extra careful this time; making sure they (the eggs) are properly acclimated to everything. Hope for the best!
Close-up:
Finally got around to counting them
648 eggs!
