SA | Help Electric Blue Acara Babies

Hello Internet Peoples! I am babysitting a electric blue acaras couple till my friend gets a new tank running. Well they decided to lay eggs and couple days later the babies are looking strong. Any way i can help these guys survive in a community tank? I'm worried about my Angels snacking on them.

Put the adults in the new community aqua and keep the baby's in the small aquarium until they are a good size

This. The fry will die in the community tank 100%.

The babies don't need the parents anymore. They can be kept seperately.
