Clown fish eggs turning white, Help!


I just transfered a live rock w/ False percula eggs on it to a fry tank. They should hatch soon, they eyes turned silver, but today i noticed a patch of eggs has gone bad and turned white. Should I remove these egs by scraping them off the rock or just leave them.

Tank set up 20L w/ air stone and foam filter.

I moved them on the rock out of the water, which I thought was ok.

it is better to keep it in the water when you move it. that may be dieoff from the air. if you can see the eyes then they should hatch really soon.

no, the instinct seems too strong in the early stages. you really need greenwater and rots to keep em going in the beginning.

Sorry to hear. yes you really need greenwater and rotifers to get them going. they also prefer a black tank.

next time maybe.
