in a tank by themselfs 1 male and 2 females
they are still in the cave but are getting closer to the exit

Ya just keep an eye on them and don't woory if they kick any eggs out .Just leave them be and keep the food going
When the fry hatch add abit more food even if you have to do a few more water changers and u will find they will grow a little faster as well
If ya not shore join the chat room about 7ish when u see some 1 on and they might be able to help
Good luck

Congratulations.
If the fry are 4 days old now the parents probably won't eat them so I'd leave them as they are.
Feed them Zucchini, Nori (from Asian section in supermarket), Algae &/or Spirulina Wafers, some micro worms if you have them and once or twice a week we feed them frozen shrimp too. Keep the feed up and bottom syphon the tank daily if possible but only use a small hose so you don't syphon up the babies as well. Water change as often as possible too and you'll have lovely big babies in no time.
Cheers Linda

This is their second go at parents the first time o0nly 2 weeks ago the eggs where sterile
