Krib Fry?

[angelfishguy]

hey,
looked into my tank when i was back at my family home and saw 2 of my kribs protecting about 40 babies,
i dont have anything to feed the babys and im not near the house with the tank,
just wondering does anyone know if theyll survive?
they seem to be picking at derbris in the tank

thanks
jay

They should do, would survive better if some powdered flake was added every now and then.. Any tank mates? Those could be a threat, but Krib parents tend to be good.

They will most likely survive. Just let the parents take care of them. Feed them good and do frequent water changes and they will quickly put on size.
