Exact quote is:
"A fish suffocates when it’s out of water, and is at risk of internal injuries due to its own weight, especially if it is large (greater than 1.5 m in length)."
I don't believe you can harm these little ones with a quick photo.

Check out point 2 for the definition. Agree the little ones should be ok.
