Kudas give birth to very small fry. Gestation is about 14 days. Newly hatched brine will be too big for the kuda fry to eat. NOW is the time to set up your green water/rotifer hatchery so the fry will have food to eat.

Here are a few resources from Google:

Rotifers are the smallest of the usual foods and are required for smaller fry (such as H. reidi and some H. kuda) which might not be able to eat BBS. For smaller fry, rotifers are generally recommended for the first 7-10 days with larger foods gradually replacing the rotifers.

Long, but informative article on rearing fry (and just about everything else about SHs):

Good luck
