normally as soon as a baby fish is eating standard run of the mill food (flake, frozen) it is old enough to go, however the smaller they are the more fragile they are and also more likely to get eaten by whats in their new home.

They may not survive the change in water conditions if they are too small so I wouldn't hurry at all giving them away for now. What's the smallest you've seen in a fish shop, certainly not 2 weeks, probably not even 6 weeks old but a good few months to half a year.
