I had a female that snacked on fry but after breeding a few I came to the conclusion that she was an exception. In general they are excellent parents. The main issue with this species is female aggression when defending her eggs/fry. They can be quite fierce and if the tank is too small can easily kill the larger male.
Do you see the eggs? They generally spawn in the open.
