You can't really "stop" this behavior. QT'ing your male really is the only real option. This could just be due to an inexperienced breeding pair. Perhaps behavior will improve with subsequent batches.
once, the fry is removed, things probably will go back to normal. they'll for sure breed again, and you can check up on the parents then. Sometimes, one of the parents will "take over" the batch and kick it's partner out. Once they both mature, this behavior may change. you just have to test it out. good luck!
