I was cleaning my tank and to my surprise, as i was cleaning my live rock, a green ball floated to the surface of the water. I handled it a bit and accidentally squeezed it until it burst. Was it indeed what i presumed to be a fish egg?

It was green, small, and hard. the only two fish that i have that could mate are my percula clowns (i'm not sure if my yellow tail damsel and blue damsel are able to). IF so, does that mean i have breeding fish?

How big was it? do the clowns have an anemone they host? or do they host some coral?
if neither .... where in the tank do they spend the majority of their time at?

i ask this is because if they host something.. they will usually lay the eggs.. underneath somewhere of what they host... on a sort of flat surface...

because if there was one "fish egg" their should be more...

Was it this?

Percula clown eggs are always bright orange. Turning silver as the fry ready to hatch.

it was indeed bubble algae. i had never seen anything like that and i kinda figured it wasn't an egg as my clowns don't host any one spot. thank you all

I have been breeding clownfish in my tank. I setup a website for how to breed them at snip
