No. Your fry should not be in cold water either.

How cold are we talking here?

Livebearers can be in water from 19C-28 but they prefer warmer temperatures. 19C is not recomended but i have known ppl to keep them very sucessfully at this temp.

And i don't know can you put them i cold water becuase I hvae a 5.5 gallon tank and it has a pump but not a heater. The pet store says that it is okay but im not sure? Do you think that its okay? Or not? Its just that i dont want them to die so i want to do whats right. Aslo how long does it take for them to grow up?
Also about baby betta fry! How long does it take for the male betta to make a bubble nest?I had a betta from my friend in a small bowl and he had a bubble nest but she didnt know how long it took for him to build the nest? I put the female in and they had eggs then fry! But i just want to know how long it takes for the male betta to make a buble nest?
