A. Cacatuoides fry

[Theo1994]

Dear community,

I have a 20 gal with a pair of A. Cac, 10 rummynose tetra, 9 fredcochui and 3 albino cory. My apisto spawned and I can actually see around 20 fry swimming. The parents are guarding the fry and I am feeding them tetra min baby. I am holding on water changes because I dont wanna disturb the fry. What do you think I should do next in order for as many fry as possible to survive?

Thanks in advance.

I dont worry about water changes, just go slow and match the temp. Can you see them actually eating the food?

Hello sir and thanks for the reply.

I can't really tell if they are actually eating the food. I know I should be feeding them artemia but right now I can't get my hands on it so my trusted lfs gave me that food.

Depending on how densely decorated your tank is I doubt that many fry will survive with all of those fry predators.
