If you take the goldfish eggs out of the tank then how can the male fertalize them?

There is no way to save the eggs. Even if you were able to transfer them to a separate aquarium you still wouldn't be able to get the male to fertilise them without the female around. Plus, he'd probably try eating the eggs. The eggs are not capable of being alive until the male fertilises them- they are about the equivalent of a chicken egg you'd buy at a grocery store at this stage. Don't worry about it there is nothing can do, or should do, so let the goldfish do whats natural (which is to just eat the eggs)- there is no need to interfere.

When will a female goldfish lay eggs after it mates?
Goldfish are not born as such. They develop (hatch out) from adhesive eggs (ova) that have been scattered by the female and fertilised by the male amongst water plants near the surface of the water. After successfull fertilization, depending on water temperature, the ova can take anywhere from 36 to 72 hours to develop into wriggling fry.
Can goldfish be in tanks?
You would need to put goldfish eggs in a separate tank, and yes, you may have to take the goldfish eggs out of the main tank where all the goldfish are, because the adult goldfish will eat the eggs. However, you can just cover the goldfish eggs in a plastic see-through box while being inside of the main tank if you don't want to take it out, just in case you may harm it, and the fish won't be able to eat it.
How long does it take for a goldfish to grow a full size baby in its tummy?
