Raising fry without parents

Do you go to Pioneer HS? LOL

No, I go to their cross town rival Huron, but a lot of my friends goto Pioneer

You can remove the object the eggs are laid on, to a small separate unoccupied tank, and place an airstone near the eggs to mimic the parents fanning the eggs. Some people add a drop of methylene blue to prevent fungus from growing on the eggs. After they hatch, they will not need to be fed for a few days while they use up their yolk sacs, when they start to swim, they will need to be fed small amounts multiple times per day. Do lots of small partial water changes. I allow plenty of algae to grow in my fry tanks for constant grazing.

Can parents protect fry in a community tank?

I'd advise against that, once moved the parents mentality will change and will most likely not consider the fry to be theirs.

I've noticed fry raised with their parents grow much faster and bigger than fry that i have separated
