Help with my Kribs

[grottosandfins]

I have a pair of kribs. The female has laid eggs on four different occasions. Both kribs are very attentive guarding their cave, but the eggs disappear after 2-3 days. I know kribs can have a hard time figuring out how to successfully spawn, but this male had a mate prior to this one and was unsuccessful both of the times she laid eggs. Am I doing something wrong here?

do you have them housed with other fish? maybe other fish are eating the eggs..?

As xOxOxO said - could be other fish. Also, the male could be sterile...it happens.

No, the other fish don't come close to the cave and the male or the female krib is always in front of the door or in the cave. Maximum security but they apparently have forgotten the most important part.
