Feeding apisto cac fry

[Apistog6]

Hi there , so my female layed her eggs 10 days ago & i now have around 50 ish fry swimming around . Currently have bbs what else can i feed them & how often ? Hoping most of them survive !

There is no need for anything besides Artemia nauplii. If you can't provide them continuously you could also do microworms. I'm not a fan of crushed dry foods but that would be an option as well.

I have had luck with Golden pearls once they have had bbs for 6 or 7 days. Live foods would include freshwater amphipods, copepods, and daphnia that can be cultured, then fed and left without worrying about them dying and polluting the water.

Add Beer Worms. Not all the 50 will survive. Its the law of nature. Survival of the fittest. Just be patient.

Movement of the food is very important with feeding apisto fry. They orient to movement in the water column. This is why live foods are important.
