hey bn experts,
recently i have about 80 bn fry hatch in my 2 foot tank. I left them in this tank for a week feeding them on peas and zuchini and they seemed fine. I then moved about 60 of them over to my 4 foot community tank which is heavily plant and houses 6 neons, 7 rummy noses, 3 albino cory's and another pair of common bn's.
about 2 weeks later i can only see less than 10 fry in my 4 foot tank. Coincidenlty my pair of bn in my 4 foot tank now have eggs not sure if this is any cause me loses so many fry or if some of ther other tank mates are to blame. Also have an elheim pro canister filter running in the 4 foot tank so not sure if they all got sucked up here either.
My other 20 fry in my 2 foot (breeding tank) seem to be fine and are about 2 cms now.
Don't really want to lose another batch of fry so wondering what i can do. Any help is grealy appreciated
thanks all
