    Question Fry disappeared after free Swim

    Dears
    I have new paired Disuces, they lied eggs 3 times but no luck ( eggs not firtlize ) round number 4 finally I got Wiggles and they become free Swimming
    but every day the number becomes less and I saw the female doing some up normal behavior ( i lose all already )

    01- She eats fry and after that, she throws them again ( maybe more one ).
    02- She eats fry if comes above her mouse.

    The feedback from my Friends is
    01- they still young and it's normal
    02- Cover the Female with mesh
    03- Remove the female totally
    04- remove the female but keep the male can see her

    i don't know what is the reason for that and which feedback is good

    please provide me your feedback,

    Mine are doing the same thing and these are the exact steps I was taking.

    Hopefully screening the eggs and fry will correct the problem. If not, I would remove the female. Males are usually better parents.

    First off were the. wrigglers healthy because if the fry are not healthy that may be a reason why they were eaten by the female.

    What can you do:
    1 take out female
    2 have another pair take care of the fry
    3 artificially raise
    4 some Discus fry are the size of baby guppys they can feed on BBS first day
    5 slime producer
