Default Octopus Laid Eggs!

So I recieved a common octopus 2 weeks ago, and for the last 3 days i noticed she hasnt moved from the top corner of the tank, upon further inspection i notice she has laid eggs....does anyoen have any experience raising these little suckers? Ive read a bit about it online lately and it doesnt seem too hard, they did say that because she has been caught from the wild not too long ago that there is a really good chance the eggs are fertile, and although i am not impressed that the mother will soon die, i am quite excited to try out rearing these little guys.... Also i was reading that they lay hundreds of eggs so usually people give a bunch away so if anyone wanted to try their hand at raising some let me know.....

So if anyone has any advise on how to go about raising them, all advise is appreciated.

Steve
