How much are you feeding and how often?
Also what temp are you running at?
A slightly cooler (than the tank) water change can sometimes encourage eggs to be released

Cool water change (about 18C) should cause a spawn.
It looks like a combination of eggs and overeating in both cases, although the tetra looks more like a full belly....

I’d try reducing the amount your feeding and/or the frequency, just incase it is just overeating/over feeding.
