Well they wont grow as fast as they should,and just like in human babies,if youre off to a good start chances are youll have a nice healthy adulthood.Now,make sure to keep temp at a high 70's and low 80's.remember if the temp is too low the fry spend all day eating just to keep their body temp at check.If they have a nice optimun temp.all they eat is just to grow bigger and stronger.

That doesn't make sense. Fish are cold blooded. If the temperature is low their metabolic rate slows so they eat less and grow more slowly. So if the temperature was too low in a fry tank then the fry would all be stunted and deformed. Bad idea.
