So many medaka fry enjoying dinner (video.4d2.org)

So many fry; send help 😅

These are baby brine shrimp I hatched that are being circulated by the current of the filter/bubbles.

The medaka are growing up in a tiny hatching tank because my planted grow-out tank is still cycling. This is just a portion of the fry. I don't think I transferred this many fry over from my indoor pond; I bet a bunch of eggs came attached to the plants that I added in. Not pictured are also a few white cloud mountain minnow and peacock gudgeon fry.

Oh don't worry they don't need anything from you to breed 😉

Edit: yeah from above in bright light, especially sunlight or uv they really glow!!

Oh I've seen some people keep these things in some really cool tanks with plants like the peace lily in small outside ponds. I think these would look gorgeous like that and I think they would do really really well. As long as I could keep the temperatures correct in the water in good condition.

Thanks for the advice friend!
