my fry are dying off

[HiImSean]

i moved my severum fry over to a 10g tank with a sponge filter last week. i cant seem to get them to eat anything. now they are starting to die off. any recommendations? im going to try hakari first bites tomorrow. i tried sinking wafer peices and small shrimp pellets for them to pick at.

try crushing omega one flakes. i use that all the time for my con fry's. or any types of flakes for now.

Mine did the same thing I wait til they are free swimming now and eating with the parents make sure the sponge is aged and the water is from the parents tank they are really sensitive to ph temp shock.

I totally agree. I would also feed something better than Hikari first bites. Many fry won't take non-live food right away. I usually start my fry on microworms and brine shrimp napuli. After a week or two, I'll start to supplement cyclops-eez.
