my problem is I'm leaving for out of contry trip again in 2 dayws for a month

Congrats....frm what i understand frm other breeders, they will harvest aft the 1st week onwards.
U can add in a partition to separate the male so that it dun feel stress or disturbed and hence swallow up the eggs.

Maybe Bro, since you be away for a month, by that time, the male Shld be releasing the fries for free swimming.

But u have to ensure the male is not disturb or startled else might swallow them.
