Exclamation Convict Fry.....HELP!!!!!!

So I noticed today that My 2 Convicts are now parents. I noticed them when I got home from work. They have them all in a pile in the corner of the tank.

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO>>....... Will the parents be able to care for them or will I have to step in and help them???

How long before they swim??

Help me please....and thanks in advance..
