A Pleasant Surprise

[jobeak]

I came home from work today and set about cleaning one of my tanks. While I was vacuuming the gravel, I spotted a little Molly Fry that shot past the vacuum. This was very unexpected as I didnt think any of my mollies were even pregnant*BOUNCINGS . Needless to say, I split the tank with the breeding net and proceeded to look for the fry. To my delight, I discovered 11 babies *SUPERSMIL and put all of them into the seperated part of the tank. They were all hiding in the plants. I have fed them crushed flakes and some liquifry. I am not sure if they are eating or not. Is there any way that I can be sure they are eating .

First time daddy here!!*celebrate

Hey welcome to the club. Well usually if it is crushed flake I push it in the water so they know its there unless yours is smart enough to go to the top of the tank. But usually they are eating it just takes time to get use to knowing your fry are eating, me I used Hikari first bites fry food and they loved it but they most likey are eating.

re : arowana

Are you familiar w/ arowana's? They say its a lucky fish, brings in luck. I know it grows very fast and only eats live fish.
