At this point, it depends on how long he's been alone. Adding additional ones may create territorial issues. If you do, always have 2f:1m ratios. Acclimate and then turn off lights...a small change in the aquascape may also help.
BTW...I couldn't tell if your Ram is dark as cinciboy mentions...possibly due to the lighting of the pic.
Whereas this is entirely possible, the male did take part in guarding the eggs once laid. Both the male and female would take turns guarding and fanning the eggs for the 2 days they were present.The male may not even have attempted to fertilize them
