I have 2 german blue rams one male one female i had them for about 2 months now. They have laid eggs a month and a half ago unfortunately all the eggs died or were eaten. Ever since then the female has been chasing the male all the time none stop every time she she's him and they have not yet laid eggs why is that ?
 
30G i got 3 small angles really small and 2 rams and yes my angels will be moved when they get bigger

Was this a proven pair that you purchased? Or just a mail/female combo? It generally will take rams a few tries to get into the swing of things. I have 3 pairs in my 55g, and the first couple times for each pair the eggs went missing. The eggs could've been infertile, and the male or female eats the infertile eggs because if they sit for too long they can grow fungus and other bacteria that would kill the remaining batch of eggs. Otherwise, I'd give them time and not get discouraged, because, if they spawned once, there's a good chance they'll keep at it. Eventually they'll get it right :D. Good luck!

Well, They must be a pair if they were breeding. My male has a go at my female and vice versa when they get all moody.
