Removing Eggs From Glass

[Blobfish]

My Whiptails have laid eggs on the aquarium glass which are due to hatch soon.  As the tank is heavily planted with a lot of bog wood, if they hatch in there it will be very hard to find the fry.  I'm not convinced they will find enough food if I leave them there so I am wondering how I can get the eggs before they hatch.  I did try siphoning a previous batch but they were stuck fast ... does anyone know how I can safely remove the eggs?
 
Any tips on rearing the fry would be appreciated too. The last batch all died and they have a reputation for been very hard to get feeding.

Itss better not to remove the eggs. And if you got any trouble feeding the fry. use a rock that has algae. You can do this by putting a jar with a rock in it on your window for several days

Sorry derp, but I disagree, in this case.

As the OP says, a lot of whiptail species (it would help to know exactly which one you have) are very hard to raise; it seems the fry just won't look for food, and it's common to loose spawns due to starvation

Once the eggs have been laid for a couple of hours, the eggs will harden and you should be able to scrape them off with something like an old credit card, or 'roll' them off with your fingertip.

You could try nori sheets, courgette or blanched lettuce (a good green one though, like cos; not iceberg!) or stinging nettle (really; they don't sting once blanched).

Thank you both for your replies.
 
Fluttermoth, they are Sturisoma Festivum.  The eggs have hatched this morning, I'm still debating whether to try rounding up the fry or leave them.  They currently have yoke sacs so I have a day or so to think.
