Jelly bean parrot fish

Question
I have two jelly bean parrot fish. One is a male the other is a female and they recently had babies. The babies lived in a log on one side of my ten gallon tank for about a week or a little longer but now the babies and the parents are moving around the tank. The problem is that I have other fish in this tank including 2 clown loaches, 2 tiger barbs, and 3 tetras....It seems that the parents (the jellybean parrot fish) keep attacking my other fish when my other fish swim around because the parents are protecting their babies. I don't know what to do with my fish b/c i don't want the parrot fish putting my other fish in stress and b/c the babies are moving around my other fish have little room to swim around without getting attacked by my parrot fish. What should i do?

Answer
Hi Kristina,
 You need to remove those other fish at least for now because as the babies get larger the parent jelly beans are going to get more and more defensive and will do serious damage (or worse) to anything that comes near their kids.
