I want to ask someone that had a breeding pair of cichla or been breeding them...

I got a trio 1male and 2 female F1 Bahia by themselves in a 180gl

Last night 1female had spawned and an hour later she ate half of her eggs and the breeding pair leave their eggs unattended..
And this is one of the female first spawned..

My questions is:
1: what did i do wrong?
2: Should i take one of the female out?
3: Why did the parent does not guard their eggs???
4: What i can do in the future to save all the eggs???

If someone had experience this b4, please share some of your experience or info....
Much Appreciate..Thanks
