i had like 120 eggs that where yellowish and now they are all gone, all i had was the 2x convicts. and it was only 5 days sence the eggs were laid... what happend to them?
it was the first time they had eggs.
 
Same thing with my Rams. There were 100 eggs, next day....gone.
 
The eggs shouldn't be yellow, white, or light gray. Those would be infertile. Your 1st pic showed several infertile eggs. Usually, experienced parents will remove (eat) the infertile eggs before they fungus to save the rest of the clutch. Seems the parents deemed the whole clutch a loss this time. Drop a flower pot in the tank, on its side, and give the parents another chance.
 
Ask your Brother, you said he spawned convicts before
 
maybe it hatched and the parents move them out somewhere else. my gf had the same situation, she tought theyre a goner then one day she saw fry swimming around.
 
Heh in 2 days im gona add some fry food and see if i can spot anything.. i did notice they dug anouther hole behind a plant, but i cant see behind it.
