Fry doing well must be 4 doz little golden critters moved to a container while I cleaned out the fry box amazed how many there were,really gold colored on thier sides ,transfered back after clean out ,fed and put the mop back but they don't seem interested in any move they move all over the place ,fast little buggers ,biggest about 1/2" about 1/3 the rest 1/3 "feeding crushed flakes I left the mop incase they wanted some algea ,may be big enough to release before cold weather ,we'll have to wait and see! I don't think we have any teeth here yet,HeeHee!

How old are they? You said the biggest was about 1/2" and that's about the size of the 2 babies I spotted today, so wondering how old mine might be.

Sadly, MULTI, the little guys will be on their own. But on a happier note, my Goldie's aren't too big yet, so if the fry have gotten this far, there is hope for them :)
