Growth is dependent on how you feed and take care of them. Fry will need plenty of water changes and be fed sparingly several times a day to attain fast growth. You can put them with the adults as long as you think they will not eat the new generation. Be careful when mixing generations of fry. A large percentage are often deformed as they try to interbreed.
