you are going to want to feed them flakes but make sure it is turned into powder you want to crush it up with a plastic knife. this will help them get the food in their mouths after 5 weeks you can start feeding them bigger peices and at 6 weeks you can move them into the real tank and feed them what the other fish eat.

What do you feed pet minnows I have some minnows and I want to know what to feed them. So what do you feed baby small minnows?

I found this which may of be use to you :The baby fry feed on small organisms called infusoria and algea. To grow infusoria for feeding just get a jam jar of pond water and run it through some cotton wool or muslin to get out any larger predatorial organsims like daphnia which will eat the infusoria and add hay the water. Leave it for a few days in a dimly lit room at about room temp. and when you next look you should see lots of tiny white dots in the water which, if looked at under a microscope reveal to be lots of types of infusoria in their millions. these can be fed to the fry by adding them to the tank. To get more just add some of the old water containing the infusoria to boiled tapp water with hay and repeat the other proceedours. As the fry grow their diet changes. When they reach about half an inch they can be fed small organisms like daphnia or cyclopses. These can be obtained by dragging a net through water where they can be see or they can be purchased from aquarium dealers. Soon the fish will eat the same food as the adults and will quickly grow.
