Tiny amounts of mashed up hard-boiled egg yolk work. Feed with the tip of a toothpick. Mashed up de-shelled peas work well also. I've fed these, baby brine shrimp, and crushed flakes to my guppy fry.

Crushed flakes work very well.

decapsulated brine shrimp eggs...and golden pearls are great for any fry....

http://www.kensfish.com/kensspecialtyfood.html sells them at an amazing price and you can get the smallest packages and it will last you forever....its great to have on hand if you plan (or even dont plan) on having all kinds of fry

i would have to go with crushed flakes. be careful when it come to the brand of flakes. some types of fish flakes can be a bit bad if you know what i mean.
