Scooter blenny eggs?

I think my scooter blennies may have spawned. I collected a bunch of eggs in my overflow strainer this morning, and they didn't look exactly like my Coral Beauties. This afternoon at about 18 hours post spawn, they have not yet hatched, but do show continued development (Coral Beauties always hatched within 16-18 hours). They can be seen to wiggle their bodies a bit in the eggs. If anyone can tell by looking if these are indeed scooters eggs, I would appreciate it. I have seen them do some courtship dancing, but never an actual rise. The only other potential pelagic spawners I would have are a pair of Bartlett anthias, but I have never seen anything close to spawning activity from them in over 3 years in my tank.
