How to know when to feed frys?

Post by chanettt »

after female left the cave, the male never came out and every time i try to take a look with the flashlight, he ran deep to the end of the cave. it is around a week already since female left the cave. today, i try again but this time a male didn't ran deep to the end like he usual. he is calm and stay at the same position. can that be some kind of a sign that the eggs hatched?

would love to know from the one who have an experience on this. when do i need to feed frys?since i can't see clearly inside the cave, will they come out so i will know that they are ready to be feed? :?

Feed with food small enough no to choke the babies. Give them sinking tablets at light out, and they will come out and find the food. If possible try to make the food land/sit as close to the cave as possible.

Congrats! Looking forward to seeing pictures of the babies :)
