Thumbs up My Clowns laid eggs...now what?

Hey,

Last night my female false perc looked fatter than usual, and then today, lacked the bulk she did yesterday, so with a little patience, I saw where they laid the eggs...seemingly unusual place and even harder to spot...I have a BB tank, so they laid the eggs on the black silicone seam where the bottom and front glass meet. I couldn't see it for the life of me and I just thought my clowns were being friendly when they were staying right at the front of the tank. So when I took a look from the side of the tank, I could see what they were covering.

So my question...it looks as though my clowns are eating their eggs? Or are they just going over top of the eggs with their mouth for some other reason? I have fed them again today and they ate.

I am in no way ready to rear these, so unless someone in Victoria who has some experience is interested in coming here and taking them when/if they hatch, please do. If not, I guess I will just let mother nature do her thing.

Now this is the first time they have laid eggs, so how often does this happen now?


Sorry for the novel,

I will get a picture when my girlfriend gets here with a better camera then I have.
