Would be a good idea just make sure the water conditions are the same.

i would make sure they are free swimming before you take the log out. I have only had problems with moving fry into new tanks while in the egg stage.

If you think you can do a better job than the parents take them out.

I usually move the female with the cave to a smaller tank as i have had problems with males. No this is not the norm but must have got a couple of radical males.

I took the mother and log out and put them in a smaller tank, now two weeks later the fry is swimming freely and i've got about 60 baby comps to raise.
Cheers Nick :D :D :D
