what are the odds

[fishmagnet]

I have a pair of Sapphire Rams from pruess pets and they have claimed an area in a patch of Blyxa Japonica and are now gaurding a nest with about 30 to 40 eggs in it.They are in a heavily planted 20 long  with a trio of orange australe killi's and 5 orange laser corys.
My question is what are the odds any of them will survive?
Will I have to remove them to another tank to grow out?
When should I do so?
I am not set up for fry raising although I do have 5 celebese rainbow fry just hatched 5 days ago in a small fish bowl with some moss and a few daphinia.
My wife removed a water lettuce from one of our planted tanks and put it temporarily to one of her outdoor daphinia cultures and the next day she removed it and found 2 swimming in the culture so she put the water lettuce and the 2 fry in the bowl and next day there were 5 so we are gonna grow em up till they can fend for them selves in my Rainbow tank.
What are the odds

I haven't kept those killies, but based on friends' experience you probably have to keep the water soft and use a good bit of methylene blue and possibly frequent (small!) water changes if you want the ram fry to survive.  Blue ram fry can be delicate and the line bred varieties (gold/electric or sapphire blue) even more so.

Well all the eggs were gone this morning so someone got em...my wife said the female started eating them and the male went nuts and was chasing her all around the tank.
Too bad ...I was kinda excited about having a successful breeding with those guys Maybe next time.
