Mating Kribs

[guppi]

My Kribs have been taking it in turns to guard the eggs, then tonight the male has kicked the female out and keeps chasing her off and fighting like mad. This happened last time and I had to put the female in quarantine for her safety, them male guarded the fry for awhile on his own the eat them. So this time I've put the male in quarantine, Any help would be appreciated.

never kept kribensis but if it has happened before i would assume that it is what naturally happens???

Need advice, thinking of releasing the male when fry arrive.

Update when I got home from work the male krib had jumped out of the breeding tank that I was keeping him in, the good news the fry are swimming about and both parents are protecting them so all is good at the moment.

You have to let nature take its course, if they are new to breeding they will eat eggs and if not eggs they wll eat fry for the first few goes. Until they realise eating them results in no fry.
