| Couple of weeks, I feed them first bites. 98% of my Fish food comes from Hikari. I feed my guppies and platties Tetramin pro. |

| So today I noticed that the fry are to big to be sucked up by my siphon. This is a problem because that was how I was going to move them to a different tank. Should I move the parents into a new tank until I sell all of the fry or should I leave everyone in the tank? |

| Very cool, Mike! The fry look big enough to be netted out now so that shouldn't be a problem. I have had better luck raising the fry when the parents aren't around. |

| The parents still guard them and the fry arn't bothering the parents. The fry are starting to eat blood worms now and when I toss in cichlid sinking bio food they go after that too. |
