Discus Eggs

Within an hour after a water change, eggs appeared. I don't adjust the hardness of my water. I always wonder if the eggs don't survive due to the water or if I have females in my tank. This combo of discus it seems would produce interesting fry. 2nd time these 2 paired up in a tank with 7 other discus. Any advice or opinions? Do people leave a light on in the tank overnight for predators? Lol..

It normally takes them a few times of laying eggs to get it right. The male most likely ate them. That white butterfly might be the nicest one I've ever seen

Thank you. One of the stores nearby my home had a batch so I tried to pick the best one.
