Just wondering, has anyone grown fry in thier fuge? Have they accidentally survived and grown up?
Last night after the lights went out i noticed a mass of critters floting around. I captured about 10 and landed them in the fuge and 10 more in the return area which has less flow than the fuge. There are still many i can count alive. Without specical feeding are the pods in the fuge enough to feed these babys?
 
Pods may be a bit too big for clown babies, they typically feed on rodifers for the first few weeks.
 
This is a long-shot at best. As therealman1 stated, you really need rotifers, and you need a lot of them. The fry need to have food, typically in the water column, within striking distance in order to eat, so a dense population of rotifers is your best bet. The microfauna in the fuge typically aren't in the water column.
