Do not wait for them to grow. In a tank like that they'll get stunted and then you won't realize when they need to be upgraded. Move them over to the 38, with all their current stuff, filter, substrate, decor and it will be cycled, if your current tank is. However, get them that upgrade ASAP.

It'll hold them for a while, if you buy them really small. Once they are at 2", you should have something else ready.
