Hi folks! As you all may know, my barred midas pair spawned and now I have tons of frys swimming around. Should I spend the energy to raise them or should I flush the frys down the toilet? What are the odds the frys will look as a good or better than the dad?
 
do you have pics of the parents and hope u do not mean flush for real , worse case just let the parent or tankmates eat them if any , thats up to you
 
yea i'd raise them and sell them, turn your hobby into cash

Wow. You want to flush them because you don't want to raise them? Too bad your mother didn't flush you.

lol...

you can probably get a pretty penny for barred midas, they're not exactly common

No need to get hostile buddy. I'm pretty sure diehard hobbyist like mojo and rapps throw away frys they don't want.

But do they throw away the fry in an inhumane method? I am sure they are doing it the right way, not flush the fry down the sewers. Get clove oil if you want to cull the fry.
 
i would try to sell or trade into your lfs for credit first then i would use them as feeders..
