Any suggestions g go or that baby at the bottom? Is it safe to separate it or should I wait a little bit longer for it to be stronger ?

I would just let it grow! Flfs are very sensitive to change and something like that may be too small to survive a transplant. Wait until you have to repot the whole tree before digging. I have a pot with multiple in it and it makes it look really full :)

agree with 9s, i have a baby fig i ordered even a little larger than that and cannot keep it alive for anything after repotting. the small guys are too sensitive
