if you don't want to breed them, the eggs will mostly be eaten up. those caught in your filter may still stand a chance thou.

Sorry past question since is high six drive it often lay eggs so normally ignore it but will the water turn bad or something . Cause I know if I want continue the laying project the filter must turn off and place a bio sponge filter in it and blow plenty bubble .

Not sure what others do but for me, I have 3 males and 1 female and when this happened, the water can turn quite milky.
Since I don't use filter, I just do large WC.
If the water is still fresh, I think not much harm to the fish but I notice their appetites drop.

But after WC, they have the tendency to spawn again......
