Fry, the juvenile stage of fish, typically stay with their parents for a brief period after hatching, often ranging from a few days to several weeks, depending on the species. Some species, like certain cichlids, exhibit parental care and may protect their fry for a longer duration, sometimes up to several months. However, many fish species do not provide extended care, and fry often become independent soon after they are capable of feeding themselves.
