Our Wyoming Whites pair has just laid another nest. This is their 9th or 10th nest so far. We wanted to collect a few of the other nests but the pair kept laying on every surface except the pot. We thought we could outsmart them so we lined their tank with tiles and a pot.
They were not too happy with the "concrete jungle" and did not lay for almost 2 months, so we waved the white flag and surrendered.
We decided to remove everything from their tank except for the pot. A few weeks later...Tah-Dah!!
This time they have finally laid in the pot.:clap2:
This nest is spread out a lot and they have a lot to learn, but I am just happy they started laying on the pot. This way I can at least pull the pot, it they don't eat the nest like all the previous ones. So, wish us luck and hopefully soon we can have some Wyoming Whites babies growing in our hatchery. Here is a video we just took of them and the nest.

Awesome pair. From what I remember about platinums, about 10-15% will look like the parents, another 20% will be like a picasso, and the rest regular clowns. 10-15% isn't bad though. Also one of the reasons they are a premium price.

He would be the second to do it. But it will be great to have more available to the public.
Any luck with them not eating the eggs

I think what Rudy meant was that he was hoping that Clownfish Depot would be the first, since C-Quest of course, to produce some WW babies from a true "pair" of Wyoming Whites and not just a male WW & Reg Occ.

So far so good with the eggs, but I am not holding my breath, since this is the first time they laid in the pot. Hopefully they get it right soon and we can have enough Wyoming White babies for everyone :bigsmile:

Thats awesome Brian, glad you seem to be having some success. Focus on bringing those guys up healthy before worrying about selling them off, haha.

Would be great to have a supplier of WW of R2R :)

yeah thats what i meant, c-quest got lucky with these white variants from just normal looking occellaris clowns according to katy addison, the other people that have successfully bred a wyoming white is SA but they only used a male wyoming white with a female occellaris , which according to a close rep there not even one wyoming white fry out of several batches, all fancys.. i had a shot at it but i didn't have enough patients . so now brian is the only one i know that has a pair of these breeding so it will be exciting to see what his pair will produce and hopefully put an end to the NO WYOMING WHITES AVAILABLE THINGY HAPPINING...

Back on topic at hand guys. No need to prove right or wrong here, lets all just celebrate the fact that hopefully these will be prevalent.
