    Those are indeed fish eggs. It could be either fishes. Angelfish and Discus have a similar way of depositing their eggs, however, both species show some parental care. Observe the fish behavior. If either species is around the eggs or appears to be guarding them, then it should be the one that bred in your tank.

    I saw my angel fish is near the eggs most of the time. But I not sure are they guarding or eating it

    The parents will clear the dead eggs (the white ones), maybe thats why you have the impression they are eating it.

    How do I change water in the tank? Can the eggs live without water for a while?

    No, dont take the eggs out of water .
    Normally i wouldnt do water change when there are eggs, however if really needed, maybe you can do minor water changes (less than 10%) but make sure you dont disturb the parents (otherwise they might eat the eggs) or let water parameters fluctuate too much.
    If your water quality is ok, i would say skip the water change for the moment, better to stay on the safe side.

    Did the eggs manage to hatch? Are they discus or Angel fish fries?
