Mysterious Fry???

My good friend chelsea has a roomie who recently purchased a few white cloud minnows. Well, it seems the employee at that pet store is not the best at netting, because he accidentally threw in a ghost shrimp and a fry of unknown origins.

My friend seperated the fry from the white clouds, and put him in his own wee bowl. She has asked me what to do with him... I told her to feed him baby brine shrimp, but I have NO experience with fry at all, and that was all I knew. Anything else to tell her?

Are the tanks cycled? You can feed him crushed brine shrimp and flake food.

If he's tiny you could feed him Hikari first bites. If he has survived this long in the stores tanks I would guess it's probably a live bearer(eggs wouldn't last long enough to hatch). Guppy, platy, or molly maybe. Good luck and let us know what it is when it gets big enough to tell

So lucky. It's like getting those free. Great advice above Hope everything turns out well and can't wait to see what the fry turns out to be.
