so my stripe damsel just layed eggs

[jsa83]

i've been wondering why my stripe damsel kept chasing my other fish and now i know..

what do i do? .. i am not an experienced breeder. i've only had my tank up for a yr (exactly a yr, because i got my tank for Christmas). how long does it take for the eggs to hatch? .. should i leave them on the rocks?... do i turn off my powerheads? will the other fish eat them? .. i have a naso tang, long nose butterfly, yellow tang, 3 stripe damsels. how many usually hatch and survive?... i really don't want 100+ stripe damsels but on the other hand i don't want them to get sucked into filters and power heads. if they survive i will probably see if my LFS will take some

the fish will eat them.

the fish will eat them.

should i remove the eggs? .. i have a small breeder tank that floats in the tank, should i put them in there?

My buddy breeds clowns, he puts the fry in a 5 gallon bucket with some cheato air hose, and heater, see of that works

I shouldn't bother with this batch,look into how to raise them ready for the next lot.
