Probably not a great deal you can do if hes sterile apart from getting another male.
The eggs should be a biege colour, if they are white they are sterile

are you sure you dont have 2 females? females will still lay eggs even if there is no male around to fertilze them.

Ive even seen two female do the whole ritual mating dance togaether. What size are the O's have they perhaps not reached maturity?

What size is your tank, and is there any type of agression during the egg-laying? Do you know if the same one laid the eggs each of those times?
