Breeding advise - keep eating eggs

[kj2006]

Hi all, some time ago I purchased 7 juv discus, these are in a 5x2x2 with a few smallish tetra and BNs. Any way I was planing on keeping them in there until they pair up and then remove pairs whenthey pair up and put them in a breedind tank to have a go at breeding them Any way stage one has worked I have a pair, Now for state 2, they are regulary laying eggs every 3 or so weeks but they keep on eating them - I'm pretty sure it is them as I never seen any other fish near and I'm pretty sure I spotted one of them doing it. My question is, Is this something they will grow out of, they are only young? Should I remove them any way and see how they go, is there some way to protect the eggs in the tank, would hanging a bit of netting over them do until they hatch?? any advise welcome.

Here is a pic, not very clear but you can see the eggs in the background.

I'd give them their own tank, most young fish eat their first few spawns, but with their own private tank they will feel more secure and you'll have a better chance of getting wrigglers.

Hi i have nine pairs in my fish house. They can only see out off the front of the tank as the rest are painted, this gives them more confidence . I normally place the pair in breed tank on there own and let them lay five or six times and if there is no progress, i use a cage for one or to lays to see if they get the jist.
