molly fry

If I don't do anything special, will any survive?

What do I do about vaccuuming the the gravel? They look like they might be able to stay clear if I go slowly.

I let nature do its course and I always have lots that survive. In fact, IMO, I wish less would survive because I don't have a big enough tank for them all. Oh, how I wish I had a bigger tank for them! Get the colors to start mix matching... awesome!

some will survive if they have somewhere to hide.
i was cleaning my tank one day and found two panda cory fry i didnt know i had.

Earlier I gathered 4 in a plastic breeder, so I guess I'll let them out. Thanks!

I eventually took a trio of adult sailfin mollies back to the lfs. I got tired of carting off fry that were approaching breeding size and crowding my tank. Incidentally, they were in a 55 with African cichlids. I rather expected the fry to be eaten, but very few actually were.

I released the four last night and the danios hit two on the way down - the other two made it back to the bottom.
