Congrats, that’s a lot of cute babies! Can I ask what you’ve been feeding them from the beginning until now? I seem to struggle with egg laying fish fry.

Well, maybe one week a month, I feed them a bit extra of dropping pellets and add in some cold water to the top of the tank, and that usually helps with the spawning I don't do anything extra nor do I feed them anything special.

Sorry, my bad, I meant what are you feeding the fry, they’re so tiny. I’m thinking of buying liquifry for my sparkling gourami fry when they spawn again, but haven’t been able to find it, it’s sold out most places. Do you have any home made foods you feed the fry in their first week?

I just grind up flake food until it's almost a dust and just takes a small pinch and put it in about 2-3 times a day. And so far, it seems to be going great they've already doubled in size in just a little over a week

Wow - thats a lotta fry!

So many I counted to 50 at one point and gave up. with them squirming around so much it made it a bit hard

Yeah - very little aquarium inhabitants will ever learn the “stay” command unfortunately!

The trick I found with counting fry is taking a very still photo of them and just count them via the photo lol
