Umm Yellow labs holding

My male and female lab bred...they were both holding. I have yet to experience a male African to do this. The guy we got them back off of said they did it all the time. Only the male is holding now but he's got a mouthful. Our female keeps getting spooked, only to swallow the fry. Malawi cichlids are suppose to maternal mouth brooders.
I guess he is trying to help her out.

She has bred before but she seems nervous in our tank.
