Ok all you Ram experts, my Bolivians spawned and today the fry became free swimming. I have an empty 10 gallon I can set up. I plan to remove some of the fry and leave some with the parents. When can I remove them and what is a good food to feed them? They're so small I don't know if powdered flake might be too big. Should I pick up some First Bites? Here's a video:

My brothers kribs have babies all the time. We leave the babies in until the yolk sack is no longer appearent. We then move the babies to 2 separate 10 gallon tanks. The will eat finely crushed flakes but I'm not so sure that's the best for them. If you can find microscopic (small, like daphnia or smaller) foods for them it would be way better.

We don't sell or keep the babies. They just go my my other brother convict or halfbeak.

Actually daphnia may be too big for newly free swimmers. Find small foods if you can.
