Congrats, Finely crushed up flakes usually work in a pinch. You might want to think about a live food culture if you are planning on more in the future. Vinegar eels are what I feed my tiny fry then crushed flakes and then regular flakes.
 
I have a question: can I do a water change? Of which percentage?

I'm afraid to kill some fry in an attempt to move them. I'm thinking to get a 5g to move the parents. I crushed pellets, shrimp pellets and some spirulina pellets with flakes in a mortar to a fine powder and I'm feeding them that but I'm getting some baby brine eggs, etc for fry.
Will do 15% water change this weekend. Thanks for you comments.

I syphoned a good group out with a 3/8 tube.. Setup a 5.5 grow out and it's worked out pretty good, did a %20 wc rvetu other day at first, now I do a couple 40% a week.. I put some mts in there to eat up the extra food.. Not a bare bottom setup.. Figured if I was going to look at it for a few months night as well make it look half decent..

Great what is mts? snails? Well I could get a few I think. I'm thinking to get some sand to decorate the bottom.

Yes Malaysian trumpet snails.. I used pool filter sand on the bottom.. I just pulled a cycled hob filter off one of my tanks and had it running in an hour.. I put about 16-20 in at first, wiped about 10 out with a bad water change, depending on your tap, I had to set up a water aging bucket to keep oh swings at bay.. I still have 7 healthy lil fry growing out and another 3-4 stowaways in the main tank..
 
Anybody knows if the Jewel eats their fry? I have to move them
