do you think the eggs are fertile I want to seperate them from the eggs because i dont want them to eat them..
Oh, no wonder it looked so nice! If you're really afraid of them eating the eggs, I suggest you stop disturbing them with your picture taking and such. Disturbing them will only make them feel threatened and will eat their eggs if they feel the area is unsafe to raise fry. You can move them if you like, but I think you should leave them just because I'm a fan of allowing the fry to be watched over for 3 days by at least the mom.
EDIT: I think the eggs are infertile.. But wait a few days.

Is the male unfertile? I have to take a light and put it on the side of the tank to see the eggs because the cave puts a shadow over them. I have more red texas but their all small like they didnt grow any.
So if I take the eggs out then I have the best chance Of having fries because if they are infertile they will eat them anyway. What do I need to do to prevent the eggs from getting fungus?
If the eggs come out as infertile, it's probably the males fault. If you leave the eggs with the parents, you won't need to worry about them fungusing over because the parents won't let that happen. Just let nature take its course. Don't disturb them that much and if the eggs are infertile or get eaten, try again.
