I have one female. I now am thinking it might be snails by what a friend of
mine experienced.
Does the lunar pull have anything to do with it because there are a lot of
eggs? Maybe more than one snail?

These are snails eggs for sure.
Clownfish eggs are not stringy, there is just a patch of eggs guarded by fish.
Snails drop the eggs on the rocks/glass in random location and abandon them.
I tried to rise snails from eggs some time ago, but with no luck...

It could be snails. I'd watch closely and see what you get.

Thanks people.

Anybody have advice on how to take care of these? Babies would be fun!
