Wow, it took 14 years to finally breed?!?!
You want to raise the fry, right? Did they lay the eggs on something small that you can remove from the tank? If so, you can remove that part where the eggs are and move it to a fry tank, but do not expose them to the air. Or you can syphon the babies out of the tank after they hatch. You can read this about feeding the fry:
