New fry

[Tempestuousfury]

My dwarf gouramis bred without a nest and without my knowing.

I have the 10 gallon full of a few inches of water and around 20 fry.

Question 1: I have a sponge filter in the tank attached to an air pump, yet no bubbles are leaving the filter. Why?

Question 2: What should I feed them now, and when do I switch over to baby brine shrimp?

OoOoOh, how exciting! From what I've read, they're just like betta fry, eating infusoria and microworms the first week, bbs after that.

Dismantle the airline and blow thru it, maybe it's clogged or something. Fiddling around with the hose usually solves tht problem. Or your air pump isn't strong enough.

I don't know what's wrong. It seems as though all the air gets backed up because the air pump makes a ton of noise when I plug it in. I acutually tried multiple pumps, and none worked. I doubt I'll be able to blow any harder than the air pumps.

Would I be able to get infusoria in frozen form from Petsmart? Would they be ok on liquid fry food?
