A fish farmer that used to hang around here mentioned they kill off

raise fry you need to feed them and he suggested boiled egg yoke.

Does anyone with a UV have a good batch of hatchlings? If the UV really
takes out the fry food, that could explain why I have not had babies for a
while...maybe the mosquito fish are getting a bum rap!

Hal has more than he wants every year! Once the eggs or fry get
past the pump, the UV and into the plant pond there seems to be
plenty for them to eat. Last year I found 60 goldfish I didn't know
I had when I cleaned out the plants.
