Default Sleeper Blue Dot Goby - Spawning eggs

So today I was moving my acan because the gobys like to spit sand on it. and there it was, sack of eggs on the live rock behind the acan! What do i do now?

So are you sure those eggs belong to the gobys?
Its a lot of work to raise fry, what with having to feed them rotifers first then brine shrimp. If you leave them in the display tank, the other fish and the filters will take their toll.
Its a lot of work, yes, but the rewards are great.
I have never raised fry, just what I have heard.

decided I didn't have the time for them.. I gave them to another reefer and once I was at his house they were hatching. The gobies are the only two fishes I have in the tank that are a pair, all the other fish are tangs and angels. The gobies were also guarding the eggs so its safe to assume it was theirs since the hole was only 6 cms and only the goby could fit inside
