festae fry tomorrow

[Falling inward]

alright i have five 1" festae coming tomorrow. i would like to put them all in my 46g bowfront tank. it is sort of newly established. i used a bio solution to speed up the process. i have one african cichlid and two tiger barbs in there for about 3 days now. so far they are doin well although they are not eating as much. so my question is will the tank be safe to put the fry in tomorrow??? any advise will be greatly appreciated.
thanks again

It should be okay as long as you remove the other fish first. Your festae will be much better off on their own.

Depends on how "newly" established - fry are quite fragile to poor water conditions.
If Ammonia and Nitrite are still present it will be a death sentence. Also I'd loose the african - it might kill your fry even at a similair size.

beware, do not over feed festae fry, and make sure you change the water every few days at least 30%. when they are young, in my experience, they are vulnerable to bloat. I had 11 and now I have 3

i agree, remove the other fish and you should be fine
