Just wanted to share for anyone whose curious as to when it’s okay to move your fry out of the fry tank... 1st Pic:: I have some ranging from 1 day-3 weeks old. I usually move them out when they’re 3 months btw.

I’m moving some of them tomorrow into the bigger tank with their parents. I make sure that they don’t fit in their parents mouths:: so I move them according to size and then I keep an eye on them for the first day just to make sure no one is bullying them. If I notice them getting pecked at... I move them back into the fry tank for another week. All my fry live together & get along from ages newborn-3-4 months old. If you want to keep them all together, just provide enough hiding spots and a spacious tank for them to not feel overcrowded.
