Sam,

The fry will die without proper food. Most likely they will eat newly hatched brine or rotifers.

If you are intent on raising the fry, and I don't see why you couldn't, you'd have to set up a fry raising tank and do it quick so it is cycled prior to them going into the tank. Use a sponge filter powered by an air pump for filtration. Some LR would be a good idea too. Tank can be small, say 10 gal or under for the first while.

You will also have to set up a bs hatchery. If you want more info, PM me. I have some experience raising seahorse fry. Rearing methods would be similar.
