my girl friends rams have laid eggs ... what is the procedure for raising the fry if they hatch?
 
When the fry are free swimming, squirt baby brine shrimp, or other suitable fry food at the swarm of babies a few times a day. Hopefully the parets will guard them from other fish. When they get a bit larger and lose the mottled colour you could net them out and put them in a fry rearing tank.

My pair of Rams didn't gurad the eggs too well against the corys. They snuck in and grazed on them till there were none letf. Next time I am setting a 25W lamp in the room overnight so the parents can see unwanted intruders.
