Default Toad eggs Filter or no filter?

I have a ton of what I think are Toad eggs in my plant in my pond.
(Long strings of tiny black dots,after I "walked in" on the act
yesterday) I want to Have my kids see them grow into toads, should I
turn off my pond filter to prevent the tadpoles from getting sucked in?

=============================
You can put some kind of guard over the intake. I use two black pond-plant
baskets wired together like clamshells, pump inside. they don't get sucked
in.
