Got it lol. I ask because I don’t see the fish guarding very much. Still has the black throat but no guarding, or atleast not often. Did she just get bored!
Cichlids are often pretty poor parents the first time or first few times they lay eggs. They stop guarding, they eat 'em, abandon 'em, maybe hatch but then eat the young...not unusual for "beginner" parents in the cichlid group.
Ya just gotta be patient...yeah, I realized how silly that sounded as soon as I typed it...

I just got back, and don’t see fry. But the tank is dirty, so I’m hoping for the best ?
No more fry 
. I think I have 2 pairs guarding eggs.

My G. terrapurpura's first spawn got wiped out within a couple days.. Assuming tankmates (4 more terrapurpuras, bloodfin tetras). pulled the fry from the second spawn about a month later..No more fry
Huh. I haven’t gotten my second fry yet.
