Mybplaty is giving birth some of those things are rocks but the rest are fry. I put her in the breeder box 10 minutes ago because i knew that she was ready perfect timing. When should i tranfer the fry to a nursery tank because ammonia builds up in the breeder box? Should i wait 2 days until i transfer them.

You'd be safe to transfer them right away if instead of a net you use a paper cup, as the net can damage their itty bitty backs :fish: :)
 
congratulations on your newborn fry :fish: , you could use a straw to pick them up and drop them into a cup or a turkey baster.
 
I have a trukey baster will it hurt the fry if i sucked them up?
 
I usually use a net to guide them to the surface and then just scoop them in. It takes patience. I have never used a turkey baster so I dont know for sure
