So I woke up this morning to see this, I am not even sure of what to do at this point so any and all comments and suggestions will be appreciated. I think I am going to have to clean up all the eggs they are looking yellowish brown, should I?

Nice!! If your up too it, try and breed her, but yea for now I would clean up the eggs.
 
RT 4 aquarium has a 15 incher , i believe it is a male. PM F22

Definately up to breeding her she is clearly fertile and ready, yeah thats what I thought too about the eggs. Question though does the male also vent as well to fertilize the eggs (tube drop down?)?
 
What would cause her to lay eggs without a male to pair up with?
 
I've heard of female cichlids laying eggs without a male present before, I guess good water quality and the right conditions caused her to lay eggs.
