yep try them i had some albino ones like that i thought were bad and some of them hatched. you might not be able to save them all but some is better then none.

as long as there is no fungus on them they look pretty good.

methylene blue will keep the fungus away, but use at half the normal doasage.

They look fine. Put them in a bucket of tank water with a heater and an airstone on lightly to keep water movement and you should be fine.

As trofius said, if your worried about fungus you can use meth blue.

i have them bubbling in the adult tank which also has fry from about 4 weeks ago.

i am assuming its safe to all fish if i add the methylene blue to this tank as a precaution...

thanks for the replys too
