Are these nemo eggs???

Noticed my pair of clarkies defending the anemone more at present and they appear to be spending most of their time at the base of it (underneath it).

Anyway, the anemone contracted today, as it does weekly, and i found these underneath!

Sorry about the photo, they are 3ft from the glass! The little brown/rusty coloured things... Are they clown eggs? If they are, will they survive in the tank?

Thanks,

James.

If you'd like to try raising clowns from eggs, you'll need to set up a breeding tank and move the eggs to it. Tons of info out there if you search google

Thanks guys, ill have a look, just dont wanna go setting up a breeding tank if it aint gonna work, its alot of money!

Why wont they survive in the aquarium? Eaten by other fish?

they wont get food they need (rotifers) and ya they'll get eating.. good for the fish who's eating though.. it'll work in a breeder tank with the right quipment. doesnt cost to much to set one up.
