i did the same mestake with my first 3 fryes, they died the first night, i dont think they can survive under 24 degrees, myne were in a box off 1L, now i have about 35 fryes in a guppy breeding box but in the same aquarium as they were born so same water same parametars, and all have been ok the last 2-3 weeks, i think that every litle change will kill them so dont try to move them too much.
Here is what i uze for the big ones:
live baby brine shrimp
and all off those foods under this in a “spice mill”:
Tropical – Vitality & Color – flake food
Tropical – Discus Gran – granulat
Tropical – VegeTabin B – tabs, krushed
JBL – Grana – mini granulat
JBL – Novo Tab – tabs, krushedAnd for the fry:
Hobby – Protogen – live infusoria
Interpet – Liquifry 1
Sera – Micron

Flat Worms
One common critter is a tiny white “worm” that seems to glide around on the water surface and sides of the tank. These organisms are Planaria (commonly called flat worms). Some species of flat worm can be very tiny — almost microscopic. All Planaria glide on cilia and slide (some say like a snail or slug) along surfaces such as the glass sides. They can glide on the glass front of your tank and do in fact glide across the underneath surface of the water using the water’s surface tension. Planaria are sometimes incorrectly confused with microworms. (Microworms are an excellent food for fish fry).
The distinction between planaria and microworms is easy to see. Although microworms and the small planaria are similar in size, microworms cannot move along a flat surface under water. They flex from side to side and cannot swim or glide on a surface that is submerged.
Planaria in general are harmless, usually appearing in large numbers only when large amounts of food are present. In aquariums, food typically consists of excess fish food due to over-feeding. There are several freshwater and marine forms. Some of the marine forms can get quite large. Larger freshwater species are themselves eaten, in some cases, by certain types of fish. One of the most common of the larger freshwater species (and used frequently in Biology classes) is Dugesia. Dugesia can reach a length of slightly over a centimeter long and is further characterized by having an arrow shaped head and a grayish color, not white.
