Question
how often can they lay eggs  

Answer
Hi Chanda;

Cichlids can spawn every couple of weeks. However, if there are already babies to care for they often won't spawn again for awhile. If the eggs or babies are removed and both parents are in good health with good water quality, they will usually try to spawn again right away.
