They do when they find places that they find better suited for the job and ignore the ones you placed for that purpose lol.

I also have to post new pics of the babies, they have almost tripled in size. It seems my new worm food works well.

Thanks I've only noticed one that doesn't seem to have grown at all, it still looks like a new free swimmer.

The fry are getting big. Nice!

 

[Gillie]

They are about 5-6 mm at about 2 weeks free swimming. Makes me wish spirulina and astaxanthin powders were more prevalent when I was breeding full time

Are you feeding purely powdered foods? I used to feed golden pearls but I would lose about 50% of the fry on that food because some would not eat.

 

[Gillie]

I'm feeding micro and baby whiteworm, I mix the powders into the worm food.

Update, fry are growing fast, they are up to about 1/4" and one big guy has staked his claim over a big wad of moss.

Is an update without pictures really an update?
