I woke up this morning, looked in my tank and discovered that I now have some pleco fry the size of an exclamation mark! Does anyone know what they should be fed? I have the regular small fry liquid from Big Al's that I have routinely fed to my live bearer fry in the past but have no idea if that is what these fish would eat. Any suggestions?

If they are only the size of an exclamation mark, most likely they are not ready for zucchini yet. Try using algae  or Spirulina disk. Most important is to get them starting to eat. Good luck!

I have a bunch of new pleco fry that I didn't even know I had and they weren't fed anything special and they seem to be doing fine eating food off the bottom of the tank.
