had 2 big spawns with this pair. the parents did great. now the last 3 times the female eats the free swimmers after about 3 days. can I pull the female and will the male raise them on his own?

That is an option. You can always artificially raise them yourself if the male starts eating them as well.

Yes pull the female and the male will raise them on his own without problem ...

Yes. Usually the male is the better parent anyway.
