i have angle fry of three days old and its for first time that i got fry and have no information how to care them,although their parents are taking good care of them but i want to know what can i do for them and what type of diet should be given to them

"Ohhhh Noodles"

our resident Angel Expert will be along soon

Good diet for fries is infusoria, if you haven't cultured them yet, try with liquidfied food.
I also feed my fries with moina(type of daphnia)

Hi

If it's three days since they hatched it'll be another day or two yet before they have used their yolk sacs up and become free-swimming. Don't feed them until then.

When they are free-swimming you can start feeding them. The first few days they will need either Liquifry No1 for egg layers, or alternatively tiny amounts of hard-boiled egg yolk squeezed through a clean cotton cloth into the water. After 4-5 days they'll do best if given live, newly hatched brine shrimp. Feed them small amounts 4 times a day. When they are around 3-4 weeks old you can give them finely powdered dried foods such as quality flake or Tetra Prima (grind with a pestle and mortar, or with the back of a spoon).

At that stage it will be best to seperate them from the parents into a tank of their own to continue rearing them. Apart from plenty of food in 4 or so feedings a day, they will need around a 25% water change every day to maintain water quality. They are very sensitive to any ammonia or nitrite and to high nitrates, so the water needs to be really clean.

That all assumes there are no other fish apart from the parents in the tank - if there are, the babies will need removing to another tank as soon as possible as the longer they remain in the main tank, unfortunately, the greater the chance of them being eaten.

thnx my dear your reply is too good and in detail..but one more problem that i think i will face in few days is that in my area brine shrimp(alive/dead)is not availuable so is their any thing else that can be used instead of it?

If you can't get any very small live foods, you can try them on ground up flake/granules after the first few days. It will be harder to maintain water quality, and they may grow more slowly, but it should be OK. The small live foods are recommended as they are easy for them to eat, and stay alive for a short-time in the water so they don't pollute as much if not eaten at once. Dried foods will suffice though if nothing else is available to you.

and what you say about gupies fry can angle fries provide gupies fry and if yes than when should i provide them??

I'm not sure I understand, but I think you're suggesting feeding them on Guppy fry? If so, then no, please don't do that. It isn't necessary and Guppy fry would be too large for them anyway, plus not the right nutrition. Better to use flake/granules etc.

The Angels should be removed from their parents at around 5-6 weeks of age, but you can move them sooner if you prefer, to make tank maintenance easier.

thnx i will surly follow your guidelines but one more thing that i have noticed is that today fries were trying to swim but their parents picked them and put to the new place(corner of the tank)and in evening i saw a liquid in cloudy form on the fries, i had read that sometime parents feed them their selves if they are feeding them than should i give them any food more or not?

I reared hundreds of Angels in the past and always removed the eggs to a home made egg tumbler, after hatching I transfer to a small rearing tank with a small fully cycled sponge filter.
I have rarely had success with dried foods as in my experience the young angels react to a "moving target" in the form of live foods - I prefer to use Microworm as this for me anyway is much easier than preparing BBS. Im sure there are several methods of success but this is simply how I do it.

Hope it helps.
