Fancy Guppy & Molly Fry

[Alexp08]

I have about 9 molly and 6 guppy fry in my planted 10 gallon tank. It has a whisper (walmart) filter in it. As if now I put foam in front of the inlet so the fry didnt get sucked into the filter. My question is, how long should I leave that foam there? They are currently 2-3 days old

I would leave it there until all of the fry are large enough to not slip into the inlet holes. By then they should also be strong enough to not get sucked against it.

I would recommend a bit of pantyhose wrapped around the inlet. This would let more waste in with safety to the fish and proper flow.
