cichlid eggs??

I've had two cichlids living in a 20 gallon tank for about three months now and have recently added another albino cichlid. I'm not 100% sure what kind they are but they were less than $20 each if the cost helps anyone identify them. Anyways.. the point is that I noticed that my albino fish was being very irratable towards the other fish when they were previously getting along. Then yesterday I noticed that there were things that look like eggs on one of the decorations in the tank and the fish is really really protective over the area, fighting with the other fish when they get too close (they lock mouths and fling eachother around). What am I supposed to do with the eggs? Will they hatch and should the babies be left in the tank or taken out so the other fish don't eat them?? I wasn't expecting to have to deal with baby fish... but I really hope they hatch!!

thanks

Ariana
