Anyone know much about raising fry?
I have a 3 week spawn, my first lot. They seem to be growing nicely. I have had a few dead ones, normal I suppose. The tank bottom is kept clean and aged treated water added when I clean the bottom, to top it up. Sponge filter running for about a week on low.
Looking at the babies with a magnifying glass, I noticed that a couple of them have slightly fuzzy tails. They are still very small so difficult to see, but it does look like it may be fungus? Not sure what else I can do for them. IAL extract already in the water from the start. Should I have added a bit of salt perhaps as well? Is this just survival of the fittest? :sad:
Any suggestions gratefully received, thanks.
 
im guessing its a bit hard to get a pic? Could be fungus, im not sure about treating fry though.
 
I've tried pics, but my camera isn't good enough. If they were adult I'd know what to do, but fry must be more sensitive to everything I could use. Perhaps it's just the way some of them go.
