Fry not eating
I am trying to raise my fry artificially because the parents tend to eat them. The problem I have is they do not eat and die with empty stomachs. I have tried micro worms, newly hatched brine shrimp, notifiers and spirulina powder all to avail. I keep them in the same water that they came from. Several water changes a day. I also have an air stone giving them oxygen. Any advice would be greatly appreciated thank u

I’ve also tried many times with no success. Havnt tried recently but here’s an article that sounds promising.https://forum.simplydiscus.com/showt...y-Jack-Agliata.

Re: Fry not eating
Thanks the was very good to read. I was wondering if I perhaps have been way over feeding and fouling the water which in turn made them sick that they quit eating. I was feeding micro worms and I could see the water was very thick with them. And a few hours later I would clean the water but there was a lot left behind.

Re: Fry not eating
For discus fry the water must stay very clean or they will die. When I use to raise fry artifically I would keep constant water changes automatically through out each day.
