Nice!
Any chance of breeding successfully? Shall I carefully scrape them off and move to the fuge? Away from predators? So far nothing has eaten them. Thx

Just consider them to be a treat for the tank. Something will most likely eat them before they reach adulthood or they'll be removed from the system via a filter sock, skimmer, water change etc.
Seeing eggs on the glass like that is definitely a good sign though.
