Be ready to move them when they hatch,, While the angles will look after
them, gather them up in there mouths and put them back in with the mob,
after they have eaten the egg-sac. They will have no idea what food is, and
unless you can confine them, they will starve. This is unfortunate, but it
happens, I use a small net tank, that clips on the inside of the tank.

You can try feeding "liquid Small Fry " by Wardleys. or baby Daphnia,
[mine comes in a small card of frozen blocks, just thaw out one block at a
time in warm water ] once they get the hang of it your away, Then you can
move them to a separate grower tank.

That's if the male has done the job, there hopeless most of the time, I get
about one spawn in 10 that are fertile.
Good Luck bassett

Don't worry about it too much. Cichlids are notorious for eating their
first few clutches. Give them some time and they'll start getting it right.
Then you'll have to worry about what to do with all the angel babies that
you have in your tank! :-)
