If you have the food ready for the fry, then I would suggest putting a piece of tile where the clowns are laying the eggs so next time they do lay eggs you can remove the piece of tile easily. Make sure you get two pieces of tile (one to replace the tile with the eggs on it once removed). Now dont remove the tile till about the 7th-8th day... as soon as you see eyes. This way the male will take care of the eggs for you till hatching time.

For the fry tank you will need rotifiers and photoplankton, and an airstone to name a few things. Its not easy to raise fry so it may take you a few attempts. Get the book Clownfish by Joyce Wilkerson... this will help you out alot.
