I was just experimenting with my bettas and though it would be fun to breed them..................to make a long story short, I have about a million fry in my fish bowl. Its only a one gallon and I don't have the proper things for them. I have to get cups to seperate them(don't need them yet but you know how it is), and I've read alot of breeding articlesand they all say different stuff about them eating. I know they eat their egg sack thingy, but then what?
PLEASE HELP ME (i know i shouldn't have put them together i wasn't
prepaired) But its too late now!!!
Please can someone reassure me its gonna be okay?
Thanks

Mine did that once and I fed my guys an egg yolk. Just a tiny tiny tiny peice and mush it between your fingers in the water and watch it break apart. Be careful tho cuz it can spoil your water very easily. You can also try infusoria if you have a planted fish bowl or boil a lettuce leaf and put it in a jar outside in the sun. When the water gets cloudy you have fry food........
I am spawning my pastels now but this time they are getting vinager eels and microworms.

And then I just drop the leaf into the fish bowl?
