Fry Question

[Sah21]

Okay so I have a tank of 4 week old fry. My female gave birth again today to another 30ish fry. If I put the newest fry in the same tank with the 4 week old fry, will they eat the younger ones?
Might seem like a bit of a silly question, but I dont want them to get eaten!

for the most part no
but really it depends on the size of the fish

Four weeks old shouldn't be able to eat new fry, but gauge it by mouth size.

The older ones are about 1.5cm long. The youngest ones are pretty small. Thats why I was concerned, they may get mistaken for food.

I think you'll be alright as long as the older fry can't literally fit the younger fry into their mouths (they shouldn't be able to if they're on 4 wks old).
