This morning doing my water change i thought i was seeing things as my eyes were not fully open but i thought i seen some little fish fry swimming, so i had to look again and yes some thing were in my tank swimming around. Being new and don't know a lot about baby fish or bugs that might get in the water. I did try to take some photos but camera no that good but one photo might show you the shape? But when i first put my fish fish in three days ago that night i thought i seen something little swimming. If anyone can tell by looking at the photo it will help me in what it is fry or bug?

I wish I could help but your pics aren't working. Do they look like this?

You probably have some platy fry in that tank John. Platies are notorious for filling all available space in their tanks with young platies. Mine are about 1 cm long when first born but grow to be nice almost adult sized fish in just a few months.

Thank's :)

Don't know if they will live but hope so :) as they will properly get in the filter.

You may be pleasantly surprised to find that even those tiny fry are more than capable of avoiding being sucked up by the filter. The real threat to them is seldom the filter but is instead the predatory nature of the adult fish in the tank.
