Answer
Hi Matthew,
Thank you for your letter. Let me see if I understand your question correctly. Your avara had fries and they all got eaten? So you want to know who ate them and how you could rearrange the population in your tank so that this does not happen again?
I am not really sure. Usually, the sales staff at your aquarium supply shop are a good resource for questions about stock & breeding.
Please tell me more & we can discuss further.
