DavidR Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I have some fry in one of my tanks, about 2-3 weeks old at this point. They are Rhadinocentrus fry. I'm currently feeding them Coop fry food twice a day and brine shrimp once. I'm heading out of town next weekend. I'm unsure if I'll be able to have someone feed them while I'm gone. I'll be leaving Friday and returning Sunday evening. Anything I should do to ensure they survive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph’s Fish and Plants Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I’d like to preface this with I have no experience breeding fish. However, if it were me and I was paranoid about it, I’d set up an autofeeder with the fry food. Perhaps also a small water change if that’s something you’re already doing for maintenance on this tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I'm in this situation with fry, I simply get a lot of baby daphnia from my culture and put it in the tank. They won't die and spoil the water, and the fry will eat them in time. That being said, the autofeeder is also a pretty good option 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
