Any fishkeepers here? Saltwater or freshwater

They're mouth brooders

You might keep a small white upside down teacup saucer in the bottom of your tank. This helps them locate a nice spot to lay their eggs.

It helps localize the eggs for you. Be careful of the other cichlids in the tank because the kids will be a free meal for them.

Raising the kids is tough. Mess with the parents too much (stressed out), instead of cleaning the kids in their mouth, they could eat them as well.

I am no expert. I have had a number of broods over the years with not much success. I had a hospital tank (10g) setup to move them into. Stressed. Bad ending.

Google, maybe there are better methods now. Still touchy though.

It is fun remembering the 2 parents swimming around with this cloud of itty bitty fry following them around.
