Harlequin Breeding - Any chance fry will survive naturally?

My harlequins have been going through a breeding/mating frenzy over the last few days.

By absolute chance I managed to find a tiny fry!

After finding the fry and sitting back and watch the tank, I caught one of the females hanging upside down under a leaf. Managed to find eggs attached to the underside.

I’m curious what the chances are of any making it to adulthood naturally in a community tank?
Current tank mates are:
Harlequin rasboras
Leopard kuhli loaches
Mystery snails

The tank is heavily planted with plenty of cover but I’m assuming most eggs and fry will end up as snacks. Has anyone had harlequins successfully raise a few babies in a community setup without intervention or is it incredibly rare?
