Hi Matt

Your best bet is to divide the tank with a divider to separate the pair and the rest of your fish.

Congratulations on the fry Matt. That's great news.

Now the bad new is, that without another tank, it will be pretty unusual for them to actually make it in a community tank.

It has been done. But only if the parents are very protective of the fry.

What other fish do you have in the tank? If they're all small, like tetras, you just might get away with it.

Good luck. :P
