the male laid a spermatore (big ol' glob of sperm) and will probably try having the female walk over it. If she does then you could be looking at eggs soon

by the pics I would say the albino is your male, if the wildtype is a male too then nothing will happen, but if female he could get her near it.

The brown blob is likely poop. See how it's pointed on one end?

sorry I am looking on my phone and was trying to figure out what "globby" thing could have been left around the tank

I agree with Kaysie, looks like one of them pinched a loaf and it hadn't broken down yet. Is it still there?
