Yep! ^^^

They do sell some fry foods (First Bites comes to mind), but they're quite expensive.

Think about starting a few freshwater rotifer cultures and add them to the fry tank as needed. They'll have a constant supply of live food to feed on.

I use encapasulated brine shrimp...... its cheap and lasts forever. I just had warm water ( tank water ) to it and wait 5 minutes. its small enough for even the tinest babies.

I feed this until there big enough to eat the flake.
