should i relocate my acei juvies?

i have 8 acei juvies that are about .5" living in my 55g with about 15 yellow labs ranging from 1"-4". there dont seem to be any aggression issues, but in efforts to make sure the fry are getting plenty to eat i was thinking about moving them to a 10g tank to growout a little bit.

think this is a good idea?

if the tank has cycled and u have taken enough water from the tank the acei are in now they should be fine when moved but will be a bit shocked from the new tank.

my fish allways get shocked when i move them to other tanks (my fry most of the time)

I wouldn't move them, if there is plenty hiding spots for the fry to get away and feel safe leave them where they are. I keep mbuna of all sizes in my tanks with no issues.
