We have fry!

[Nikki J]

My m. auratus had her babies and she's scattered them all around the tank under different rocks.
Taking these babies out of the tank is near impossible. Does anyone have any tips on how I can help these babies survive?
We're both new moms, so any advice would help
Thanks!

I have mollies and platies but would think the procedure is about the same... lots, and LOTS of plants or cover for the fry to hide in, grind some of the food up to dust and cover the intake on your filter....

do a gravel vac(the fry are on the bottom right?) and you should suck up a bunch of fry to raise in a seperate tank.
