Help with Kribs fries...

Hi All,
This is starting to get ironic but here goes:
I have a spawning pair of kribs 2 on a 40 gallon planted tank.
I can also mention that now they have spawned for the fourth time and each
followed spawning there are more fries!
On their 3rd attempt I siphoned half the fries to a 30 gallon tank but was
starting to loose all of them, the other half was eaten by the
parents.(they
were removed a few days after hatching)
This is the fourth spawning and I do not with to loose the little
guys....I
am thinking of maybe removing the parents after a longer period ? or
should
I wait longer and once again remove the fries the 30 gallon tank, but
taking
some water out in order to ease it up for them while searching for food ?
Comparing to the 3 previous attempts there numbers of fries is
increasing.....
Any suggestions for saving them ?

I have bred lots of Kribs. I presently have a female with about a 100 fry in
a 20g tank. It was necessary to remove the male from the tank in this case
as he was eating the fry. The mother did her best to keep him away but it
was a constant battle. I have had other breeding pairs when both were good
parents.
