Those do look like eggs in the last picture. But there survival rate will be zero if you just leave them in your tank. If your interested in raising them do a little research on what equipment is needed. It is very time consuming.

If you want more info in detail let me know

Yep! Clownfish for sure. Those shiny dots on the tips are the eyes. A sure sign for hatching soon. Not much you can do now but enjoy the moment. If you are intrested in raising some fry read Joyce D. Wilkerson's book "Clownfishes" and it will answer most of your questions. In the mean time pass on the first few spawns and get your equipment ready. As Bones said, it is VERY time/$ consuming. Congrats and good luck!!
