Platy fry

I have 2 surviving platy fry from my ordeal last night. I have moved them to a breeder net so the other fish will not eat them. Now, do I just feed them crushed fish flake and wait?

Crushed flake is good. Frozen prawn eggs are good too.

I read on another forum that the fry can start bullying each other over food. Is that true?

This usually happens when they get older I also feed mine crushed flakes too. It is just if they don't have enough food they will bully.

I agree. Ive never seen this myself with our fry.

With only 2 fry, I'm not expecting much but, got my fingers crossed for 2 healthy platy's

My 4 year old daughter is all excited about the baby fishies

You could even look at liquid food or micro pellets
