Okay here is maybe a strange question. I have a pair that have spawned together four times and they did have live once. They wound up eating the fry. Now after their 4th try I tried a screen over the eggs. But I think it was too much for them and not even the female went to fan the eggs much and they went bad so I took the screen off and they ate the eggs. Now they are fighting with each other. I am looking for opinions should I break them up or let them go for another spawn? Like I said they spawned 4 times together and now they are fighting.

People regularly have problems with pairs fighting. I recommend that you no longer screen the eggs and let the pair spawn freely. Then, after another 10 spawns or so, if they still eat the eggs, then u can screen them.
