So yesterday, for the first time I bought some guppies from the new petco near my house for an experimental 10 gallon terrarium I am building. I got 3 female and 3 male guppies. So this morning I wake up and look in the tank to see several little bugs swimming around, I look closer and they are little fish!!! First time I have ever had fry. Im a daddy

So what can I feed them, or will they nibble off the flakes?

Finely ground flakes will do.

Ya, crush the flakes up real good. I usually just put a bunch in a plastic bag and mash it for a few minutes until its really small bits. Then you won't have to crush it up all the time.

I use Wardley Liquid Fry food and Hikari First Bites

First bites, but if you have live plants or some algae in tank they will do fine.

I have some hornwort in their, will that do?

Yeah it'll do fine. I notice fry like to eat tiny debris we can't even see.

Congadulations on your first spawn!

If you want to see fast growth, feed small amounts of finely crushed flakes
