I put them in a gold fish bowl that I already had, what should I do now? I only counted one dead.I left them in the water that the mother was bought in. I want them to survive, so I'm listening.

Most fish will eat baby fish.. so you need someplace for the babies to hide. There's all sorts of different 'cover' you can buy at the store, which are made to look like artificial plants, that kind of float on top of the water.

well the stuff mentioned above is liquifry food. It loks like runny milk (my brand) and works well. Another food, and most usefull is Brineshrimp, but would only be used if you raised fish as a hobby.

The eisiest to use and eisiest at hand is taking some fish flakes and crushing them into powder before feeding them.

I would fill a ziplock bag with a tiny bit, then shake and crush like mad!

There are more but not for the untrained. email me at killerrosta@yahoo.com if you want to know more.

Oh and keep the mother away from the babies, she will eat them! They have no maternal instinkt.. or is that just guppies?

Oh feed 2-3 times a day!

Crushed flake food, Babby brine shrimp, there are even things called babby bites. They are little bite sized food for babby fish. They will do fine in the bowl untill they are bigger.

give them clean water

crushed up fish food

Get a breeding bag from pet store or find a very small woven mesh bag put the babies into it and hang them in the same aquarium as mom you can put them in with her without the bag but if you have other fish they might eat them

To feed them they have special food at the pet store but i just crumble up fish food as fine as i can and use it

Good Luck
