Found A Small Baby Fish In Tank

[scotty]

found a baby this morning,quarter of an inch long,sort of brown in colour.the only fish it could come from are

rosy tetras
scarlet tetras
Corydoras Loretoensis

i only have 1 clown plec so doubt it was that

any ideas what it could be,don't want to stress it out,to take a pic
cheers

sounds like maybe corys

 

[scotty]

well its still alive and well this morning,what would be the best food to feed it with?

 

[waterdrop]

I'd certainly try some flake food that is really pulverized as at least something until some more of our members come forward with other questions/ideas. Its hard since its not really identified yet. WD

here are some pics,not the clearest,but if anyone can id it,would be great

[mattlee]

deffo not a cory fry

 

[bae1994]

i wouldnt say it was scarlet so id say other id also feed it crushed flake (but preferably bbs)

How sweet! Looks like a tetra to me!

 

[scotty]

i think it might be a rosy tetra

 

[Harlequins]

What a cutie looks like a tetra,definately not a cory

 

[scotty]

getting more like rosy tetra,must just have been lucky,didn't think they would breed in my tank

Fish like tetras often spawn in tanks, it's just either the conditions aren't right for the eggs to develop or they all get gobbled up...then if any hatch they have to evade larger hungry fish till they're a non edible size...lol.
So this one must be a very lucky and crafty fish. I don't envy you if you ever have to net it!
