Green terror fry

[ehh]

So I had a male and female green terror in a 30 gallon. I didn't buy them to breed, it was more of a good deal I came across.
They ended up laying eggs. All the eggs ended up covered in fungus. A day later I rehomed them.
The day I rehomed them I was cleaning the tank and found wigglers under a rock :-/. They're now free swimming. What do I need to do to keep them alive?

I'm just getting into breeding cichlids myself but I'd say grinding up a good quality pellet to a very fine powder would be a good place to start

I put flakes, freeze dried blood worms, and mysis shrimp in a coffee grinder to make a powder for fry. Works great. Feed them and keep the water clean. That's all you really need to do.

 

[ehh]

So they're big enough to where crushed food will work for them then?

Crushed, no. Powdered, yes.

Hikari First Bites, also Instant Ocean baby brine thats if you want to save time from hatching your own. Some breeder's just pulverize a good brand of cichlid pellet.

I concur...Hikari first bites...or crush regular pellets and feed them.
Avoid water changes for at least 2 weeks and then you can do a weekly 10% change
