They adults will eat them most likely. I would net them and raise them in a different tank / container for 45-60 days.

I'd grow them out longer than that depending on the adults fish size. If they are small enough to fit half way in a mouth then don't put them in. Also I try to tell myself to wait another 30+ days after I say they will be ok just to be sure.
