    Clownfish Eggs????

    These showed up on the back of my tank about a week ago. I'm pretty sure they're clownfish eggs. They're right where my percs hang out. Today they are larger & I see little black spots (I assume are eyes). I estimate 50-60 eggs. Could someone please confirm they are eggs. I'm very suprised to...
