How big should my little kribs be before I move them away from their parents into another tank? Last time I tried to leave them with the parents and no one made it. Trying to get a few to survive this time.
 
I would say once the are clearly visible move them . Like 2-4 days after being born . Just do it very careful , also should have a sponge filter in with them when you move too a fry tank , so the bigger filter doesn't potentially sucks them up . :) oh and btw pictures . Best of luck
 
I am have breed kribs for a while and I take them out when I think they are ready which is around 1 inch or so
If you want them to spawn quicker you take the fry out sooner but it's really when you feel like you should.
