yeah, the fry will most likely fall in the cracks, you can just add sand to what you have in there and gravel vac it to mix till its a desirable texture, or clean it out and redo completly
+1 ditch the riverrock, and use sand, if you have fry in the rocks now wait it out but most likely there done
You could move the eggs to another tank and artificially rear the fry, just fill the tank with water from the parent tank when you move the fry to keep the chemistry the same.
