    ‎ Breeding fish is one of the most enjoyable parts of the fishkeeping hobby. Let's talka about how to create an ideal environment for raising baby fry. Most fish are egg layers, livebearers, or mouthbrooders, and some species even display parental care. However, at some point, the baby fish will need to fend for themselves, so add lots of plants, hardscape, and hiding spots so they can escape from predators. Plus, feed them tiny foods that will help them grow fast and healthy.

    omg thanks for mentioning to start on small tank get their appetite going and gradually increase the tank. i seriously believe this is one of the untold secrets of successful fish keeping.
    this i believe is one of the secrets in getting fish to eat better! everytime a fish of mine slows down eating, i put them to a smaller tank and get them to eat better till they get to a glutonous way of eating then I increase the size of its tank.
    i myself usually start on 10gal, goes 20 then to the big tank. that way they know me, they know the routine, they know where to find the dropped food. and yes i make it consistent where i drop the food too so they can catch it immediately and prevent the filter from sucking most of em up.

    The easiest and most hands-off way is to have a established tank with a working ecosystem, where the fish can feed themselves. I have accidentally raised hundreds of babies, i am in the process of trying to find homes lol.

    I am an accidental fish daddy or is it fish grandfather. My Cherry Barbs in one tank and Hillstream Loaches in another tank are baby factories. Both are community tanks with plants, driftwood, and rock piles for the babies to hide until they get big enough not to be food.
