Tiger barbs had babies

Well, not sure what I did right in my planted tank, but I got babies. I have seen 3 so far at one time. They are maybe 1/4" right now. Since I didn't plan on them. And I haven't done anything different in the tank. What should I do?

29 gallon planted community tank. No aggressive fish. 15 small fish.

 

I think they might be ok, most of the time fry will hide in plants

 

What other fish do you have in the tank? Are you sure they're tiger barb fry?

 

They are tiger barb, they are large enough to easily see the marking. I got harlequin Rosebora and some platys.

 

Ok moon light are on, all overy lights in the house off I got 8, yes 8 baby tiger barbs

 

I would think they're platy fry rather than tiger barb fry. Tiger barbs don't often breed in home aquaria, while platies are baby machines. Can you post a pic of the fry?

 

finally got a picture of one!




only found one lately, but not sure if any more made it.

Cool. guess I am totally on track for this tank then.

 

Oh my gosh!!! it is so tiny and cute, I could barely see it at first.

 

it is super cute. and hides all the time till I feed. then I can get to see it for a second and its gone again

 

you must have great water quality!

 

I have well water and here is a tank shot... between the awesome well water and my plants, its easy to maintain. Used my cell phone and the camera is not too good on it. I cut the lawn 2 weeks ago. Waiting a a friend to get time to get some of the large chunk in the corner. I turned off the co2 back in march. The plants grew to fast for me to keep up.

 

nice tank! I wish I could do a planted tank.

Since I have 4 tanks in the house. I figured one community tank with plants. The rest are glass bottoms with fake grass and plants to make them easier to clean. Plus since its only 29 gallons, I figure the plants make it a more stable system. (I started with saltwater and after I moved here in the winter I decided to try freshwater . This is my first freshwater ecosystem.) The other tanks are larger so I get to be worn out on water changes

 

I love saltwater tanks, I want to do one some day.
