Hi there milkyway,

If u don mind, may be can post an advertisement inside here letting people to adopt the fries. I'm sure that is good idea rather leaving them to live in a small swimming area. It may disturb the growth of the fish itself.

Or you can buy a large plastic basin, put some aquatic plants, fill it in wit water until half full. Put the fish in the new habitat and feed twice a day with the tiny crushed fish food and egg yoke. I'm sure you will enjoy to see the growing progress of ur fish. I'm sure u will enjoy it been the Godfather of the fries and after a few months can put them into the main aquarium. Try this.
