What is the situation for the move? if they came from the community, then they will go back fine. If these have been 'cleaned' for breeding purposes then it is still not a problem, but I would clean them again before breeding again. I hope that makes sence.

yes the fish originally came from the community tank. still struggling with the nitrite its back up to .25/.5.. the male is now really dark and sitting at the top of the tank on a slight angle. female is fine swims around the tank then sits beside the male for a bit.
im fighting the nitrite with nitrovic.

I would cut back on feeding for a few days. How much water are you changing ? To show nitrite you must a poorly filter, it is probably not mature, what have you done to it recently, what have you changed?
Is your community tank matured? if so, put them back in right away.
If not, you need to keep on top of water quality and changes.
Nitrite in any amount is bad for fish.
keep us informed ok

tank has a sponge filter that has been running for 2 months... it seemed to spike when i started feeding BBS to the fry.. community tank is matured so i will put them back in there for a bit.. they have gone though enough.. i change about 25% every second day in the breeding tank.

yes, put them back for now. Can I ask how you matured the sponge, this seems to be the reason for the problem.
