I lost all my angelfish eggs to fungus. But one egg managed to fall off the leaf in the seprate tank i had them in, so now i have one lone wriggler. It still has got a yoke sac, but how am i gonna feed one little fish. I was thinking about putting a clump of java moss in there so it can eat the micro organisims off of it. Is there a better way i could feed it? I cant put the plants in yet, cause theres still methylene blue in the water from the eggs, and this is sposed to be bad for plants. The seperate tank is only like half a gallon, and is floating in the original tank. Its got an air house slowly bubbling in it to give the water air. I shouldnt need a filter for one fish should I? How often should i do water changes? Any help, and/or advice would be great. Thanx in advance.

I fed mine Baby Brine Shrimp. You can get frozen BBS @ Petsmart, I think Hikari Packages them or you can hatch your own. I think Microworms would also work. I never had much luck with prepared fry foods but IMO Hikari First Bites is the best of those.

You probably won't need a filter with just one fry but water changes should be frequent because you are bound to have excess food floating around. Overfeeding is going to be needed to make sure the little guy finds food.

Good luck, Mike
