Fish that won't eat fry?

i'd say stay away from the inverts, im pretty sure they'll eat anythign they can.

If you don't want to have an empty tank running when you don't have fry, just put the filter sponge or media in the main tank and empty the fry tank when you don't need it. Then when you have fry, just fill the tank with treated water, transfer the filter sponge back, and you're ready to go.

I have a 10 gl with Guppie, Molly, and Platy fry and I have a Albino Corys in mine and the Corys never bother the fry.. I have even seen the fry swim right in front of the Corys mouth and the Cory still didnt bother them.. So I would suggest putting a Cory or 2 in there.. It is better to put 2 in there because they tend to get lonley when they are by them selves...

I have ghost shrimp in mine at first, until I seen them chasing the fry and then eating them..

My cories that are in my fry tank are pretty small. They have never seemed to bother the fry at all.. if anything, the fry would pick on them. As for the snail, I would assume that whenever I caught it eating some fry, that they would have been dead beforehand.

i wouldnt add anything to the tank besides the fry. before you know it, youre going to have 30-40 fish in a 5 gallon tank, and you are going to want as little extra bioload as possible.
