I need something to feed to the fry of my shelldwellers. They seem to be ok one day rising to catch the smallest particles of crushed flake and algae tablets that float by their shells then the next day the fry have vanished never to reappear. Its happened 3 times now, my stats are good and the parents behaving normally. Is dried food not right for such young fish?
 
Mine did well on just flake crushed very fine. Later on I finally some found frozen baby brine shrimp which they really seem to like. Try the BBS, I'm sure they will go for it.
 
I fed mine last night on Forzen Mysis which had been recommened to me but I`m not it was a good move as the Multi Fry looked a lot like a Frozen Mysis Shrimp. :blink:

I`ve got a pair of Petricola Catfish in there as well so I`m a bit worried about the latest set of fry being eaten.
