Bubbles

[scooterchick]

So last night I set up a fry tank, I've got the landscaping done (I know it doesn't need to be elaborate for fry but I'm planning on keeping them here til they're young adults), stabilised the temperateure, added salt, only thing to do now is remove chlorine and add the filter which is bubbling away in the adult tank, then of course go fishing for the fry. However there's loads of bubbles in fry tank, will these disappear when I add the filter and can I sweep my hand across them to get rid? Or will they come back?

Are they stuck to the glass, or what?

Yes, stuck to glass, decor, everything. I swept off as many as I could and put the fry in. They seem happy.........fingers crossed.

The bubbles are natural and will almost always happen with newly set up tanks...They will go away on their own in 24 hours or so, or...You can wipe them off the ornaments/sides. However you do not want to put a fish into these conditions as the airbubbles can cause pop-eye. If you wiped most of the bubbles off though, you should be fine.
