Neons

[littlenemo]

Will small neons eat my baby fry? There about 3 weeks old the fry?

Most fish will eat anything that fits in their mouths. My dwarf gourami actually makes a big show of eating then spitting back out if he decides it's not edible.

No because the Neons do not have a big eoungh mouth and we use to have a powder blue dwaf gourami and fry about 3 weeks old and we put them in and they did fine intil we had to bring them to the pet store this guy bought like 15 of them at once and im afraid that he use them as feeder fish

Nope petco doesn't give you money, and if they're fry they give them away for free I had to bring in 13 fish the other day and it was sad 10 fry a black neon a platy and a zebra danio

What makes you think he used them as feeder fish?

 

[Man of fish]

I could think that too if a guy came and took 15 free fry. Most people would only take 2 or 3 MAYBE 4 max but 15 and you've gotta assume they werent for keeping. Maybe he was selling for a profit? You'll never really know

 

[Sailfin Zach]

Well he took like 15 and who wants 15 mollies

I one time raised guppy fry to adults and ended up having to bring them to petco. Now I just let them stay in my tank as a nutritious treat to who ever can get them, or if they survive give them away if there are to many fish.

I think if he wanted feeder fish he would have got goldfish as they are cheaper, right? Maybe he had a HUGE 300 litre tank just for mollies so he got 15

 

[Man of fish]

At petco when you bring in fry they give them away for free.
