Your welcome. Thats the usual for myself also. Eggs there, ready to pop at lights out and then nothing in the morning, no eggs, no fry.

Thanks again for your experience Doug.

Your welcome Brad. I agree. I can sit and watch little going s on in mine for hours. {when I have time, }. It never seems to get old.

Between the Chromis and the Fire Clowns, there is a spawn in my tank every week and I've yet to see a hatch.

Hey Lance. Got lucky this time I guess. Mom & pop never left their pvc house during the whole thing. Seemed busy though. Not sure what they were doing, unless prepping for another brood. Yes, it was somewhat sad. Never bothered me much before but guess it was the visual aspect of it this time.
