The secret life of baby fish, watch them grow!
Baby fish are initially called larvae, then fry and finally fingerlings before they mature into adult fish. Larvae are totally dependent on their yolk sac, while fry are able to feed themselves. These fish are Rainbow Cichlids also known as Herotilapia multispinosa. Cichlid fry are so interesting to observe!
