Last night, the eggs hatched!
Can anyone tell me where to buy fish food for them?

Th Polyart a few shops from C328 sells daphnia aka "boon" in the afternoon. I always purchase that for my fries.
Thank you Duckie and demoon for the reccomendations, any in the east?
most lfs should have fry food. Worst possible scenario would be buying blood worms and chopping them up
Yah, but what is fry food? Its is dry flakes or live?
Dont think fry at this small can feed on boon yet.
You can try Hikari First Bites or start bubbling some BBS now..
What is BBS? British Braodcasting Station, Bulletin Board Service, or Big Bad Sotong?
BBS refers to baby brine shrimp...
Nah, i dun want to do BBS....too troublesome! I remember i saw a product called Instant Brine Shrimp, is it available in Singapore?
Well is all about hobby, if you really enjoy fish keeping or breeding you would not see it as troublesome.Originally Posted by mikisol
Anyway you can try decap brine shrimp eggs, can feed these directly to your fries.
Decap brine shrimp eggs? That sounds great! Where to buy them?
Young danio fry require infusoria as a first food, not BBS. If their mouths are too small to ingest the BBS it will be useless. Add some Liquifry No.1 to your tank to increase infusoria growth. After about 3-4 days the fry should be able to take BBS or "boon" aka Daphnia. Powdered flake may not interest the fry at this point of time.

Fish.. Simply Irresistable
Back to Killies... slowly.
Thank you Stormhawk and I will be on my way to bedok to look for LiquidFry No.1.
Yesterday I just bought MicroPellet no.7 but they are not interested, this morning i tried with TetraBit Complete finely grind and they still not interested.
Haiz, guess i will be busy for now, next time i won't used Love Potion No.9 on my Danios!
I am back from bedok north! And i found this shop quite good
HDB Bedok #01-19, 416 Bedok North Avenue 2, (S)460416
There is another shop in the same block too, Aqua-bio.
I bought "boon" but my danios babies not interested so meantime I have to air-bubble it, wonder how long i can keep?
Meantime, I found a better alternative to BBS and liquidfry; its BP! No, its not British Petrolem, nor is it Blood Pressure, but Baby Planktom! A small bottle cost only $3.50 last forever! Any body got anything to share about baby plankton? Sure beat BBS!
Hi Mikisol,
Boon quite easy to keep alive, they eat green water or yeast. I'm not too sure about baby plankton, never seen nor try it. In a established tank, normally there should be enough microscopic organism for the fries to eat. In your case, maybe too many fries so might not have enough to eat. So here is some emergency rations for the fries.
1. Boiled egg yolk, grind it to super fine
2. Sponge filter gunk. Apparently a lot of microscopic lifeforms live in a sponge filter so you can actually squeeze it in a pail and put some of that dirty solution into the water for the fries to eat. The downside is they will dirty the water
3. Green water, basically this is just algae water. Get a container, add some tank water mix with , put a little milk or finely grind vegetation and put it under intense sunlight. The bad part is it will take some time to grow, the good part is almost every small organism consumes it. From small fries to clams to boon
Good luck with the fries
Thanks Demon again.
You said yeast, u are referring to Instant Yeast, the one used to bake bread?
Baby plankton is actually dry and powered form. It is much smaller than BBS.
Yes, a lot of fries, But tomorrow will be 3 days old, I think i have plankton to tide thru this period, and then boon takes over.
Yes is the normal yeast that can be used for baking.
Fries are eating baby plankton? Maybe you can share with us how the bottle looks like?
I might go and get 1. I like trying new stuffs
Wah, I look at the time of ur posting. You are going to sleep or u are waking up?
Here is the photo of BP!
By the way, the "boon" smells awful, right?
Haha.. sick fish bothers me.Wah, I look at the time of ur posting. You are going to sleep or u are waking up?

Thanks for sharing!
Yeah boon smells. I have never success in keeping boon, even in green water they still die within a week. I am just bad in keeping them. Usually I'll let my fish finish in a day or two.
