Re: NFC: feeder fish
I am confused as to what costs? I am not buying anything except maybe the
adults (unless I can get a few adult mollies during a gainesville fish
collection with Robert). What other costs are there? I have tons of flake
food for the adults. I guess I will have to buy some fry food. I may need
to add some more plants. Otherwise I think it is just add adults and scoop
out babies.
