Gbr Laid Eggs In Community Tank

[Billyboj]

I have been watching my rams because they have been real buddy buddy lately, no nipping or anything and today they are guarding a corner of the tank from the other fish. They found a called sword leaf and laid eggs. Is there anything I can do to try to save some of them.

They look a little white to be viable, to me. Hard to tell for sure because cameras translate colors differently. Are the eggs white? If so, I don't think they're fertilized.

They were only laid 2 minutes before I took the photo, the rams are still close to them

Are the eggs supposed to be a different color when they are laid? Or do they get fertilized after

Most fish that'll watch over their eggs fertilize them as soon as they're laid, and they turn brownish.

Well I will check before I turn in, hopefully get something out of this but it is the first time for the fish.

Eggs have been eaten already, I’ll just pretend that they were underutilized. But on the plus side I have a breeding pair lol
