look like corydoras eggs
Corydoras seem the most likely here. As for raising, if you leave them where they are, it is probable they will be eaten by the rasboras and/or cories before long. Overnight definitely, when cories are out and about. If you want to save them and hatch them, gently remove them (scrape but very gently, or you can cut off the leaves which might be safer) and place them in one of those fry nets that will hang on the tank rim, or something similar. Another tank with the same water (siphon it out of this tank) is OK. There has to be water circulation to prevent fungus.
Add some dried hardwood tree leaves, like oak, maple, beech, popular, or you can buy Indian almond leaves in some fish stores. This produces a lot of infusoria, the first food of all fry. I never bothered with "fry" foods, just dried leaves and then Omega One Shrimp Pellets once I saw wrigglers, This is the easiest method. Hatching live foods is good but more complicated. Fluval Mini Bug Bites can come later when the fry are a bit larger.

hello, I put it in a gallon container in the tank, and i put a piece of manzanita. i will collect some leaves tomorrow. is it good for now?
Yes. Presumably the fish cannot get into this container. Can water circulate through it? An air stone can achieve this if needed.

OP
yes, an airstone allows for water circulation, does it need to be connected to the main tank?
My solution with this issue was to use one of those nylon mesh breeding boxes hung in one front corner. This allows water to flow through, and keeps other fish out. With a good layer of dried leaves on the bottom the fry are fine.
