The fry I have would not go near the dry fishfood. Do I have to starve them until they are willing to take the dry food?

I have no problem getting Cory fry to eat pelleted food such as Tabimin. How old are your fry?

Do you have to have them eating dry foods? And starve them!




Graeme.

give or take 10-14 days for the 3 months mark for the first 2 fry. +7 days for the next batch of 4 and another +7 for the next batch of 2.

These are the first 3 spawning from a just mature female.

They are sterbai fry. Kind of small. the first batch is around 1/2-5/8"

I tried feeding dry food for fry, but they won't touch it. I will switch to tetra tabimin and see if they will eat it.

Thanks.

Update: fry are not eating tabimin either.

Edge,
Try freeze-dried cyclops-eeze if you insist on using dry foods. The frozen is better as it sinks to the bottom.

At around the three month mark I would have expected starbai to a lot bigger than that.

I can get most cory fry eating HBH Krill (Soft & Moist) at 3 to 4 weeks no problems.

They are stuck on microworm. 3 times a day. I cant get them to take on tabimin, and I dont have another source of livefood for another week.

They were also grown in room temp of 70f. they are now in a 76f tank.
