Cinnamon Clown eggs in my FOWLR, not asking what to do anymore
Tonight as I was feeding my FOWLR & was looking about the tank I noticed this on the back, lower right side of the tank........
The picture really sucks but you get the gist. My question now is what do I do now? I have never had eggs before so need some help.

Usually once clowns settle in and start spawning it is a regular event. My ocellaris are almost never without eggs. If you really did want to consider raising the fry, there is a good book called "Clownfish" by Joyce Wilkerson which details the various species, their biology and how to raise clownfish fry including getting rotifers and greenwater cultures going and so on. They'll hatch and be good fish food. Yeah, it sucks, but so does life in the ocean if you think of it. For a fish species population to be stable, on average one mated pair need only produce two fish to replace them in their lifespan. Now consider that they'll lay hundreds and hundreds of eggs every two weeks, the number of fry they produce versus the number that need to survive has a huge disconnect. Mother Nature is a harsh mistress!

Grow rotifers, its the only size of food they will eat.
Has to be rotifers and they must be alive. get some cloramx too, to remove exess amonia. Wait till hatch day and siphon out the babys to a small tank with heat and air.
