I just set up my tank less than a week ago and one of the platies had about 13 live fry, that I could find. I already had a fry net that clips on the side of the tank so I put them in that. I have a ton of questions, though, mostly because I am still cycling the tank:
1) Should I keep them in the net, or get some hornwort for them to hide in?
2) What should I be feeding them?
3) Should this increase my frequency of water changes?
4) I noticed as I was stirring up the tank trying to find them, there is a lot of debris along the bottom of the tank - Normally with my water changes, in the past, I would vacuum up the bottom (with a siphon). Should I not do this so as to not suck up the fry (or for any other reason)?
