Best feeding clown fry marine rotifers, brineshrimp to large until approx
8 weeks old, the fanning the male is doing is to oxygenate the eggs, the
sand might just be covering eggs due to fanning. Very hard to keep fry
alive you really need a dedicated grow out tank, no lights on only when feeding, the light on the heater blacked out and all four sides of the tank covered with black paper to keep light out, fry gravitate towards the light and will starve to death chasing a pin prick of light.
Hope this helps.

i have herd that breeding clowns are quite easy and common as you will always have a pair, but the hard thing is keeping the fry alive and feeding them, most carnt do this......my dad sometimes goes on a SW form site and some just leave the fry in ther as food...they also do this with cleaner shrimps. good luck with the fry feed baby brine shrimp
Clownfish will change thier sex so your pretty much guanrenteed so have a pair. Ever seen Nemo? Eggs look like they are in the movie. Once the fry hatch out them in thier own 10G with water from the main tank, well most.
Well either most the eggs were eaten, or they are burried. because theres maybe 20 or so that i can see ( its behind a rock so there might be alot more ). But i believe they are burried. I'm not gona remove the eggs from the tank this time, if they hatch then thats good. But I will try and breed them next time. and see how it goes.
Probably. my mom wanted to downsize not breed 
I'll end up taken care of her tank so I'll probably get some money out of it.

Even if they breed, they hatch, just leave 'em. They'll prolly become food for your clean-up crew.
If youre going to want to raise the fry, you have to get some rotifer cultures going. They will only eat live foods when they are small, thats why they need rotifers. Buy Clownfishes by Joyce D. Wilkerson, this book will tell you everything you need to know. I've tried to raise babies, ive only got 6 at the moment because my rotifer culture keeps crashing
