Clown fish laying eggs!

Wait they are laying eggs right? Because I dont see anything there anymore and it doesnt help that they placed them on the black silicone.
 
Do other fish eat the eggs because I thought they ate them when they hatch?
 
Uh im not super sure but i think sometimes clownfish eat their own eggs, but thats only a few. They would never eat all of it. What other is do you havr?
 
Is there any way to see them for example shining a light when it's dark or something?
 
You would definitely see clown eggs- they are bright orange when first laid and get darker towards the third or fourth day. When they're near catching you can actually see their eyes through the eggs. Here's a picture of my Clarkii clowns. The eggs in the yellow circle are about to hatch and the eggs in the red circle were laid about an hour before.

Your right, they do look like they're laying eggs, but it's possible that they might just be preparing the location. I would keep a look out for laying in the next couple evenings though
 
You where right I just looked with a flash light and it just looks like they are cleaning the spot. The thing is that there are bite mark's on the silicone so hopefully they dont destroy my tank.
