Default Breeding Red Forest Jewels

Hi All,
I was given 1 male and 2 female Red forest jewel's a couple of weeks ago.
I mainly keep planted tanks, but I decided to keep these fish as a trial and
threw them in a 2ft tank with a basic undergravel filter.

It seems that the Jewel's decided that the tank conditions are perfect and
have cleared a patch of UGF totally of any gravel, and laid about 100 eggs.

I've really taken to these fish and I'd like to build up a good sized colony
for a larger Cichlid tank.

The eggs are now 2 days old..............So where to from here?

Does anyone have any experience breeding these fish and looking after the
fry?

What can I expect?

Kerry
