EBR's pulled a fast one on me

Well I guess they got tired of me pulling their eggs every time they laid them on a pot, so they dug a hole in the corner of the tank and laid them there this time.

I didn't notice it till several days in, and by that time they already had wigglers. I decided to suck them out with a turkey baster, and I got about 15 or so, but there were still a bit left behind.

I watched them today and the fry are free swimming, there is about 20 or so, and they are actually doing a great job parenting them, both mother and father are herding them pretty tightly and despite the other 5 rams in the tank they seem to be keeping them well protected.
