At about a half inch they are ready to ship,
you can ship many in a smaller box then, which lowers cost. If you can find cichlid dealers in your area, it helps. Don't know their policy, but there is a place called Mainly Cichlids in California you may want to try.
Some cichlid shippers may trade you a few of something you want, for your many fry. I find that works well, I get to get rid of many fry at once, and get something I've always wanted for my hait shipping cost. I'll normally send @ 100 fry in trade for 4-6 of something.
