    If I where you I would leave the female in the tank and move the male back to the original tank the reason why I say so is because the female wont eat during this period and she need some space to hatch the eggs and let the fry out when they are free swimming and then you should feed the female well before you put her back otherwise the male will harass her again (for breeding) and might kill her

    It might be best if you take him out as soon as possible, rather stress the female out for a few seconds than the male harassing her the whole day
