Fish Herder
Hi,
I've been rescaping my tank and so kept a lot of plants in a bin filled with water (unheated, but in the living room). About 2 weeks later my brother notices small fish swimming around the top.
We removed what fry we cound find (around 50) and started acclimatising them in my main tank, which they are now in, in a net.
I've been feeding liquifry and crushed flakes, although i've never seen them eat. They used to hang around the top of the water, but now they seem to be hiding in the bottom corners of the net. There also seems to be very few of them, although i can't find any bodies (they're small, but don't think they can get through the net?).
I've now noticed more fry swimming around the top of the unheated bin. Should i be catching them and putting them in the net too? They seem to be doing better in the bin
Should i be doing anything different with the fry in the net? I've put a few plants/bits of moss in there but they're not swimming around much.
I'm also assuming they are Boesmani rainbow fry.
Thanks
