If juvenile fry eats younger fry, at what point will they stop

[beastie]

I have the clown killifish fry, for which even Cory commented juveniles will eat the smaller ones, and I have the pseudomugil luminatus, again four or five larger fry, nothing smaller.

At what point will they stop, is it size related, age related,...?

I just wonder when I will see new fry, to start feeding paramecium again, or use the fry powder as I had before, which brought the luminatus to the adulthood.

When they are full!

I try not to keep fry that are more than a few days apart in age in the same grow out. When hatching Odessa Barbs, the first fish to hatch can actually be large enough to eat the last ones to hatch.
