chromis laying eggs?!?

[mayjong]

hey all-
last night, just before lights out, i noticed both (i only have two)of my blue-green chromis were in a corner of my tank, attacking my dottyback (usually it's the other way around!) checked it out, and saw that one of the chromis was laying eggs(?) in lines on the glass. the other one would "belly" on the wall after it. the one "laying" had something protruding from it's anal area.
of course, the dotty was eating them. really, "trying" to eat them , as both chromis were pretty effective at defending the area!

anyway, is there any hope for these eggs? or are they fish food?

thanks!

Chances are very faint.Damsels are difficult to raise and Chromis is one of the most difficult damsels.
But you could start by recording the incubation time and taking pictures.and observing the egg development if you have a microscope.
