Female Gourami full of eggs.

Ok i believe I've got a female gourami full of eggs. Now i have male with her in a community tank. I dont want them to breed. I do not see any bubble nests but i do think the male has try to make a nest but it will not stick in the current. So what will happen to the female if she doesn't release her eggs?

Well, i had a female and male gourami in a 3 gallon when i was little and the female stayed full of eggs forever and one day she just released them. So i dont think it will hurt them any. Eventually she will realease them. Just Biology.

Un-used/un-needed eggs will either re-absorb into the body, or be released and ignored, also not growing into fry.
