Question
i have newborn fish and dont know the species how do i care for it
Answer
Hi Butchiee;
Feed it crushed fish food flakes or frozen baby brine shrimp several times a day. Keep the little fella in a filtered tank away from bigger fish. Put netting over the filter intake if he looks small enough to get sucked up into the filter tube. Change 25% of the tank water twice a week and hopefully he will grow fast and get big enough for you to tell what kind of fish he is. Use a water conditioner every time you change water and make sure the new water is the same temperature as the old water to avoid shock.
At Your Service;
Chris Robbins
