Can be eggs but need clearer/brighter pics a little closer
Hi yah it’s hard to get a pic with the lighting and hubby has them set I don’t want to change them. I took them out of the tank and they look more orange than pink. They are in that container

They look clear orange jelly like with a white spot in them. And still there today. Not sure what would be laying eggs as we only have one of each fish.

Yes, I do see these as eggs and im leaning towards fish opposed to snail eggs
We haven’t gotten any snails for the tank. We just have the 3 fish. Surprisingly it survived in the little container since yesterday. They do separate a bit when I move the container

As stated fish eggs and color consistent with clown eggs. Mine are yellow/orange when laid

Is it something that could come from the food. We feed them frozen shrimp.
Doesnt represent shrimp eggs which are generally tiny

Thank you everyone for the replies, thought clown fish eggs have black dots. As I said we are very new to this. Had the tank less then a year
Black dots emerge when eyes develop. May not be fertile

As I said, I'm fairly certain these were cardinalfish eggs that were released and then not fertilized. The size and color is the same.

Hi we are new to salt water tanks. We had a snowflake clown, banggai cardinal, photon storm clownfish, starry blenny
Pinwheel zoanthid, Indo venom green acid torch, pink center alveopora,
We lost our acid torch and our snowflake clown. The clown fish we lost after some strange eggs showed up in our tank. They are kinda pink just one blob but made up of small clear bobbles. We left them in didn’t know what they were and they slowly disappeared. I did see the storm clownfish pulling at the blob. Today another blob showed up the same thing. I took it out as soon as I saw it. Any idea what this may be. The first photo is in the tank second one is after I took them out
