Frozen Daphnia

[FishTankMan]

I have been using Hikari first bites for my angel fry. Is the Hikari frozen daphnia small enough to be fed to them as well?

Yes, daphnia and baby brine shrimp could both be options.

Have about 100 angel fry in a 10 gallon tank. I do 50% water changes daily. Also I am running a sponge filter

With 1oo fry two cubes per feeding should be sufficient. It's important to remember with fry that feeding more often, smaller amounts is best for rapid growth and proper development. In our breeding facility we feed up to 10 times per day in this stage.

I've found daphnia to be too big for small fry. They should be a few weeks old before eating daphnia, maybe older, depending on conditions.
