Help?? WITH GUPPY FRY?

My guppy fry are in my 4 gallon breeder tank. i have been feeding them finely crushed flakes but i want to know how to give them egg yolk i dont get that. By egg yolk does that mean you boil and egg and open the egg to the core and take out that boiled egg yolk and drop it in the tank? or is it something else? They dont sell brine shrimp eggs at my local petsmart i dont know what else to give them besides the crushed flakes help?

    You don’t need to feed them egg yolk.

    Just stick with crushed flakes, and buy some bloodworms or specially powdered fry food at your local petstore. It’s good to mix up your fry’s diet, which I can’t do, because of allergies.

    Hope this helps!
    Good luck!

  2. Try grounding a little bit of lettuce to about 3/4 of a tablespoon so the lettuce will become algae and the fry can eat that

  3. boil the egg, take the round yellow yolk out, and give them VERY small bits. Not more than can cover half of the pink part of your pinkie nail at first, or more than they can totally eat in 5 minutes.

  4. Boil the egg, then take the yolk out. Put the yolk on a bowl or inside a new plastic bag from fruit stands. Mash the yolk and add a little bit of water. Don’t add to much water, you just want it to be like a thick cream. Get a clean toothpick and dip the tip. Then dip into the tank.

    A little should be enough because they can’t eat a lot and the left over egg will rot badly. Feed them the egg 2 times a day in small proportions and feed crushed flake food 3 times a day. The egg gives a lot of protein to help them grow, and flake food has some veggies to help them digest. A mix diet is good.
