Hi there, and congrats!

There are a few choices as far as food goes - the best IMO is to buy some brine shrimp eggs and start a hatchery to prepare some food for them. It is preferable to have the shrimp hatched prior to the fry arriving. Here's something I came across on a quick search, and seems simple enough to follow if you need some help.

Otherwise, of course, you could buy some small frozen foods or a suitable brand fry food (I know Tetra makes something called Liquifry) which should be accepted by the youngsters.

 

Congrats

I have krib fry at the moment and apart from brine shrimp I have been feeding finely ground up tetra prima granules and flake mixed with tank water. Their response to it is quite good and have about 18+ youngsters.

 

Realy apreceate the help, will go and get some brine shrimp when im done at work. Hopefully i make it in time. as far as i knew i had 2 males or females i could not sex them properly.
