this could have went 3 ways i have been informed!

1 they could eat the 9 day old babys and try to raise a bigger brood of fry!
2 they could eat the eggs and keep the 9 day old's
3 they could try raising both lots eggs and fry(depends on the parents)

the male missed the first five eggs and 3 minutes later they had been eaten.then for quite some time the female would pass over the tank side ( not laying) and the male would also pass some distance away doing his job!

im relaxed in the fact that the eggs are now eaten and they can carry on with their fry for a bit longer.
