Default Breeding advice needed !!

My pair just mated yesterday, the nest was fine during the day, so I left the lights on over night , and let the male do its job . But in the morning I saw a lot of eggs on the floor , the male is constantly saving but many are still dropping , could it be the sponge filter I added disturbed the nest ? Or that's natural?
Any advice ?

another alternative, try hatching bbs atm so that you wont have to hunt for boon every other day

Where you got this formation from? I dont think it will cause any disease. I have been raising betta fries with BBS, so far no problem

I thought newly hatched betta fry is too small to ingest boon? Feeding liquidfry will also promote the growth of tiny organisms which will be small enough to be eaten by tiny fry.

Tried and tested liquidfry is a scam. It does not work and it dirty the water in the tank. Betta fries need live feed. Boon/daphnia is small enough for the fries to eat. All the breeders here feed boon and bbs.

They have a small egg sac to let them absorb food on until they are free swimming. by then they should be able to feed on boon/bbs.
