You can feed them feeder fish like guppies or small rosies. I would keep them together but separated from the adults. Place feeder fish in a bowl and let them forage. If there are plenty of fish to go around you probably won't have any serious fights. You can feed them every 2 or 3 days or else just keep fresh feeders in there most of the time. Keep an eye on their progress and separate any "runts" that are unable to compete with the others. When they are ready to switch over to pinkies you should separate them. This approach has worked well for me.
