Rehoming

So.... after a bit of a failed experiment trying to get a pair of Bolivian Rams I think I have 6 males, consisting of 2 older ones who tolerated each other and 4 younger boisterous ones who have came in and made it Ramageddon.
Obviously this can't continue so I've got someone coming tomorrow to take whichever ones I want to part with for his much bigger suitable 4ft setup than my corner tank with it's limited footprint
I reckon I'll need to move on at least 4 of the 6 to take the strain off the tank, but the question is should I
Rehome the 4 newer ones and keep the older 2
Rehome a mixture and keep 2 younger ones in the chance there is a male/female (seems unlikely)
Rehome 5 of out of the 6 and just keep one by itself ( not sure if this is a bit shady, even if they are all quarrelling boys)
Or just rehome the lot of them, that option does make me sad but if it's the best scenario for the fish I'd just do it.
Really torn on what to do, any thoughts folks?
