	how to feed the fry??
victimizati0n Banned Posts: 1217 Kudos: 1105 Votes: 31 Registered: 29-Apr-2004	Ok.. my white clouds have reproduced, and theres babies swimming around. They are REALLY small, and we dont know what to feed them. Do you need brine shrimp, or would powder fish food be good? Is there anything we need to know, because we have never raised WCMM fry. Also, do we need to buy that liquid food stuff? Thanks.

We have only bread angles, so it is a big difference between eggs, and livebearers. Thanks guys!! EDIT** also, will a cory eat the babies? I was gonna get one, but now this changes my whole decision... [span class="edited"][Edited by victimizati0n 2004-08-08 08:09][/span]

victimizati0n Banned Posts: 1217 Kudos: 1105 Votes: 31 Registered: 29-Apr-2004	ok.. im gonna buy some liquid food, and probably start brine shrimp again. Im gonna need a new filter also. I cane believe we got fry after like draining the water, and everything. after doing a little more research earlier, i found out they wernt livebearers (i thjought they were too) EDIT** How much do they reproduce?? I want to keep breeding them, but i just wante reado for this. [span class="edited"][Edited by victimizati0n 2004-08-08 11:18][/span]
