| FRY FOOD |
| SOME food IDEAS YOU CAN TRY. WHAT WORKS FOR OTHERS MAY OR MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU. YOU MAY LOOSE A FEW SPAWNS or fry .We all did. BEFORE YOU find what works best for you. DONT GIVE UP !!! |
| After you remove the male,and for the next 5 to 7 days.You can use one or all of these foods: --Infusoria ( green water) -- PhytoPlex (by KENT found at fish stores) I use more of this than green water -- Yeast: mix a very small amount {16 granules} in a cup , with water in it. Stir until water becomes milkey.Then take an eye dropper, fill it about 1/2 full, put a few drops in the fry water. Be careful not to cloud up the whole tank,this will only happen if you put in 2 or 3 droppers full. -- Brine Shrimp: use on the 4th day. Some start earlier. -- Vinegar EEls will live from 5 to 7 days in fry tank. -- Micro Worms: start on day one . Do not put too much in. If you do they will cloud your water. --Keep cover over your fry tank ,at least for the first 30 days. If not don't let the temperature drop below 80 degees in your fish room. --Liquid Fry: use only one drop,then put it away, until your next spawn. --Dry food: Use only the amount that will fit on a pin head. Better yet don't use it at all. They will do much better on live food . EELS- M Worms-PhytoPlex |
| Fry after 5 to 7 days. What you feed your fry will depend on their size. Some spawns grow faster than others. Take a plastic 1 measuring cup with top. and mix these together in it. --Put a small amount of water in the cup. Add --Cyclop-eeze --Golden Pearls 100 to 200 micron From brine shrimp direct --Decapsulated Brine Shrimp Eggs --Let sit for a couple of min. -- Feed with eye dropper . They love it. Keep in refrigerator. --Grindal Worms. --Black worms --White worms --Daphnia (feed them Phyto Plex) -- Put various dry foods in a small pepper grinder --I use all of the above. The size of your Bettas will tell you what to feed them --Bettas have no idea when to stop eating,The only time I had a swim bladder problem was when I fed them all the live baby brine shrimp they could hold . You must control how much they eat at any one feeding. It is better to feed a little 2-3 -4 times a day, than a lot at once. |
