German Blue Rams Layed Eggs - Part 2 of 2

The dense white quarter-sized spot in the middle of the heater under the female ram is what appears to be eggs, not to be confused with the heater bubbles all over the heater. It's easier if you compare this video Part 1 to see where the eggs are now laid. This video was filmed literally 30 minutes after Part 1 and I missed the egg-laying. Anyway, I've only had these rams for 2 weeks and they are still young, so I'll be surprised if any of the eggs are fertile. Plus, with them laid on the heater and all the uncatchable guppies in the tank, I don't think I'll have too high of a survival rate.

@rexlink1 unfortunately none of these eggs survived. i didn't even see any hatchlings so i don't know if they got eaten by the other fish or if they didn't hatch. the heater was a bad spot for them to lay the eggs as they probably got cooked. i later learned that this was also a recalled stealth heater. i haven't had luck breeding the rams in this tank because it got overrun with guppies that i can't manage to catch. my adult rams are about 2"
