You can vary their diet with baby brine shrimp, daphnia (water fleas), and crushed spirulina flakes to start. They will eat blood worms and adult brine shrimp, if you mush it up in your fingers first to make the pieces smaller. Depending on your water parameters will provoke them to spawn/breed (lots of 20% water changes, like every two days, and slowly allow the temp to go down to about 67F). Once you notice they have laid their eggs, you should remove the adults to another tank. The eggs will hatch in about 3 days, the fry will live off micro-organisms, so make sure that your tank is well established, and don’t be afraid to add a little food to get the microorganisms multiplying. You can start feeding them bbs and finely crushed flake food at about day 5. Watch your fish for signs of being picked on, but since clouds are pretty peaceful and like to school, you shouldn’t have any issues.
