Congrats on the spawn.  :)
Probably grow them to approximately 1 inch diameter to be safe.  Unless your community is very small types like little tetras, etc. then you may be able to add them earlier. 
75 gal planted, t5HO, fine soft sand, powder-form hydroponic fertilizers., 5 viejita apistogramma, 1 Banjo Cat, 1 Rapheal Cat, 3 Emerald Corys, 2 black angels, 1 Bushynose Pleco, 1 molly, 5 SAEs, 2 bolivian ram, 1 kribensis.

20 gal low light sand tank, 4 white cloud mountain minnows.

thts good news, am working on an angelfish tank .. currently have 5 veil angels (2 koi, 3 smokey) ... i think they are all males, not so luck in finding females... anyways here's what i remember when i reasearched angels breeding behaviour.

depending on what is in the main tank ... 1 inch diameter (body, without fins) should be safe ... as long as the tank is peaceful and is moderatly planted.. that should be fine ....

A side note, veil angels takes longer than regular angels to grow. so be patient if thts what you have.  live  food and a mix diet are suppose to boost their growth.

Goodluck.
