after a quick 2 week birthday celebration i changed the water and noticed a dead fry thats only the second i have lost so still not doing too bad so far
tested the water and -
ammonia - 0
nitrite - 0
nitrate - 5
must have just been a weak one, i hope

Hi mattlee

You are doing well. Sometimes you can accidently knock a fry around too much while adding water. It's happened to me.

 

[mattlee]

thanks inchworm ill try and be a bit more gentle with the water changes then from now on....

ive been feeding microworms for the last 2 days and the fry seem to have bulked up a bit, dont know if its coincidence or the worms are doing the trick.....
at what age do i change to crushed flake etc? at the moment they are getting microworms, freeze dried brine shrimp and firstbites. not at the same time but ive tried to give a variation in diet....
