Hello

I have got 10 fry that I have had to move to a seperate tank.

They have all the basics , Heated correctly, Oxygen, Sponge Filter.

They are a week old.

I have been feeding them liquifry number 1 , and i put some freshly hatched brine shrimp in last night .... but am I feeding them correctly ?
What else should I be feeding them, if anything ????

just brine shrimp should be okay for now, you can stop the liquifry as it messes up the water. i think you should be fine as long as you keep the water clean.

Ben, are they eating?

If the fry are actualy eating the baby brine shrimp, you'll see the little bellies turning orange as they fill with food.

Good luck, they are very sensitive at this stage, so make sure your water changes are very gentle and the parameters are identical to their tank water.

Ammonia will be a real issue, so keep checking your water.
