1 month old C.Trilineatus - Feeding Question

Post by Oz »

Hi all,

My group of 5 C.Trilineatus bred in the new year in my main tank and I managed to save some eggs. Only four hatched and only two of them survived but the two that did have now been transferred to my 30 Litre tank with a single juvenille bristlenose for company. My question is regarding feeding the two cory fry - at the moment I am dropping in some pre soaked flake with a turkey baster to one corner of the tank. I'm putting in about 10 pieces of Tetra Pro crisps and the two fry seem to have it all eaten within the hour. The BN is definitley not eating it, so how often do I need to feed them - I'm going with three times a day at the mo, is this ok?

Regards,

Andy
Well I wish I was a catfish,
Swimming in, lord, the deep blue sea.
I'd have a, all you pretty women,
fishin' after me, fishin' after me,
fishin' after me. Yeah
