I have two freshwater tanks. One 20g long with 7 cichlids and a rainbow shark. I also have a 36g tall with 7 mollies 2 algae eaters and 2 plecos. I currently have one baby Molly with the others and just realized my cichlids have fry too! I would say about a dozen. So I was wondering should I switch the fish from tanks to the other so I can give the baby cichlids some room to grow. Should I or just leave it ?
 
I'm with supergummy, you sound overstocked. The cichlids will probably get too big for a 20, depending on the type. No matter what type they are, I'd say its too much aggression for a 20g. What kind of algae eaters are in the 36? And what type of plecos do you have? Common plecos reach 2ft, and other common types of algae eaters get fairly large too.
 
I have just common plecos and algae eaters which when to big I plan on putting in my brothers 100g
 
The cichlids are
-3 black convicts
-2 buttikoferi
-1 sm jack Dempseys
-1 sm managuense
