How to feed baby-fish whitebait.

Tank set-up Thank the God. The tank needs a small pump inside to create a water-current. The gills of fish use moving-water to breathe, so the water needs to be moving. It's not the same as having water rain upon the tank's surface. The tank needs an air-pump to provide oxygen in the water. Types of baby-fish There are two types of baby-fish, based on the salt. 1) sea-water baby-fish [note 1] and 2) fresh-water baby-fish [note 2] Transporting baby fish If you have caught some baby-fish, you will need to transport them (from the net to the fish-tank) in sea-water. Preferably sea water that has previously been in a clear tank with sunlight to bloom the phytoplankton (green vegetation single-celled algae). Sorting baby-fish from fresh water and sea water 0) keep your fish in sea-water 1) watch your fish every 10 minutes 2) if a fish is lying still at the bottom of the tank, move it to a river/rain water tank.
