RE: overfeeding fry question

["Yvan Alleau" <yalleau@coas.oregonstate.edu>]

i personnaly never had any pbl even when accidentally over feeding fish with
bbs. I did get in trouble with over feeding frosen bloodworm as they
decomposed and i had a huge "bloom" of some nasty paramecies that did a
number on the fry (i was feeding the parents with worms).
If you have otocinclus, amano shrimps, snails, cories or whatever in your
tnak they will help solving the problem. Just monitor but i wouldn't do
anything drastic.
hope that helps.
take care

Hey,


I accidentally injected WAY to much bbs into the tank which has like few day
free swimming agassizi fry. I didnt realize there were so many shrimps in
the syringe and I probably put in 10x the right amount.

Did I just screw everything up? the tank is heavily planted 15 gallon with
about 10 gallons of water in it. Just the parents and the fry (over 100
babies id say) As well as a box filter.

What can I do?
