At what age(weeks) can you treat your frys for flukes?
At what age can you start de-worming your frys?
I have 50 frys, 6 week old in a 10 gal tank.
at what age can I move them to a 25 gallon?
How many frys can I put in a 30 gal if they are 8weeks old?

I'm not real sure about the med thing...as I only treat when I see symptoms...But 50 6 week old fry in a 10 should be move into a bigger tank NOW! If 6 weeks old, they should be about quarter-sized...WAY too many for a 10g...Bill

around 6 wks ago

I would consider something bigger at that age & size. I have started several fry out in a 20g, but I also did 150% water changes every day for the first 6 wks. Then into a 55g, still keeping large water changes. So it really depends on your water change schedule & your feeding schedule

I start to deworm mines at 9 Weeks, once every 1 or 2 months.

You should move them as soon as they start to bother theyre parents, i do it at 4 weeks, sometimes at 3.
How many frys can I put in a 30 gal if they are 8weeks old?
about 10, but you should use at least a 55g to grow up the fry.

You need to make sure that the parents are clean before you breed them. If they are keep then there is nothin for your fry to catch.
