Yes! Those are eggs in 3-4 days they should start to move known as wigglers each egg should shave two black eyes them. My convicts just had eggs and now they're gone can't find them. I'm not sure if they ate them or not but not concerned many cichlids eat their eggs first time or even the first few times.
I wanted to take out the eggs but my pair laid on the damn tank and not even in a pot lom
Nvm they're wigglers thought it was poop lol haha I was trying to move the pot and female for some odd reason wouldn't leave it and I was like whatever since I needed 1/2 pots for another project lol probably have 50-60 babies
