They are 3-4 inches and are currently In a 200 gallon, will shift them to my 500 gallon in a month and later build a 12×8×8 pond for them in my farm
If there is no visible damage maybe they will settle down. If not separate with a divider.

As stated, if the fights were inconsequential, I'd leave them be. Usually small RTCs stop fighting around 6 inches of size.
