Flowerhorn laid eggs on a rock. I was wondering could I take the rock with the eggs on it, out of the tank an put it in my other one without killing the eggs??¿????

You could, but the eggs can never come out of the water. They have to stay submerged the whole time. The small tank must be filled with water from the main tank, a simple air driven sponge filter will be ok for them, but you should also provide a very small current over the eggs, this can also be done with an airstone. Some people add Methyl-blue to the water at the egg stage.

Just one question though, why not leave them where they are?
