they are so pretty but darn mean to each other

Put the female in like a breeder net/trap. That'll give the male more space and can recover that way.

I've used the specimen container you can buy right at Bridges for this very purpose (though mine was the male causing issues, so he got the timeout). Think it was like $8 if I remember right.
