Those do look like eggs...
Do you know if their fertilized?

If there is no male, they are not fertilized and won't hatch

Cichlids can cross breed. Who is in there with her and is he shaking his tail near the eggs? She is certainly a cichlid

if she is a german blue ram and the one by the orange plant in the first pic is a german blue ram well they aren't in breeding color but that's a maybe on fertile eggs. They will guard them. They look a little chilly, what temp is the tank at?

 

[Connor23]

The cichild is proper territorial and wont leave the rock, so could they be another fishes eggs shes guarding? temp is 27 should i top it up?

The fish that has laid the eggs is a Blue Acara. They have been artificially crossed with Blue Rams but I don’t think it’s possible without a laboratory, and anyway your (male-looking) Ram is nowhere near breeding condition, so she has laid them by herself, so they are not fertile. There’s nothing to do. They’ll probably be gone overnight.
Btw, Rams need it a lot warmer than your other fish. 27 is great for the Ram but too warm for the others.
