Fry foods

[tank212]

I have my microworm cultures set up and they already got worms galore. I was wondering what other foods should I get if I need any when the fry get older I will definently have bbs after a few weeks of microworms. Will my culture ruin if I don't harvest it often?

the culture wont runin if theres too many worms but it should be replaced every 2 weeks. asside from bbs, daphia are food, and onec their a bit bigger blood worms will work well too. eventually you want to work them onto dry foods as once they are old enough to be sold off or given away, this is most likely what the know owners will feed them.

How do I replace them? Do I just put some oatmeal on a bottom of a diff plate and scoop some culture out of the previous one?

Yes, just create new cultures from what you have. I ended up with about 8 cultures by just expanding.

Actually I had my babies on BS within a few days of their birth. I continued with a mixture of BS and MW for about two months.
