Do they look like this? These are clownfish eggs. Damsel eggs should look very similar.

Breeding fish! HELP NEEDED!

Hi all, i have a pair of blue damsels that have layed eggs in this piece of rock, what steps do I need to take for the fry to survive, how long till they hatch? Any ANY advice will be appreciated!!
 
The eggs will hatch 7-10 days after they are layed. You have to remove them from the tank and raise them in a seperate tank. You also need to grow or purchase rotifers for the fry to eat. Just do a Google search and you will find a ton of info.
