Do I keep them with thier parents till they are around a 1/2" or can I put them in their own tank right away? Isnt it about a 2-3 day period before my eggs will hatch by the way?
 
you dont, i took the 1st batch my jags layed out as soon as they hatches, mutch easer to catch, and they are doing well in a 10G.

and yeah 2 - 3days sounds about right
 
My pair would do great with the fry untill they got to 1/2 an inch and then they would eat them. I tried pulling the parents before the fry were that size and but I never could get them to eat.
