=====================================
I hope your veg filter is at least 100 to 200 gallons with almost no
current. I feed mine "green water" or raise them in green water, then feed
hard boiled egg yolk mixed with finely crushed flakes or fry powder. I add
water and use an eye dropper to drop it all around the area they're hanging
out. Wait until they're free swimming. Do small water changes several
times a week.

Let nature take care of them. Let her cull or you get the nasty job. ~ jan
