Just provide him with food,and possibly place a sponge over the filter intake.Its hard to say with fry.Either they will make it or they wont.

Yes you can do that.He could be weak from lack of food,or the whole getting sucked up by the spinning propeller of death thing may have him shaken up.

there is no propeller... a little air line blows bubbles in the tube and makes the water flow

Ben I see cartoon images of a fry barely missing the propeller,lol.

Ah,ok.So instead of a giant propeller,he is chased by a giant bubble of death.No worries,lol.

Unless he's going to turn into a chinchilla, making it or not making it are kind of his only options. what else could he possibly do?

Well,TBH,Justin I was thinking if he didnt do either of those he would change into a hawk.

A chinchilla is much cooler though so we will go with your plan,lol.

So now his options are,making it,not making it or changing into a chinchilla.Or a hawk.

Oh a Cheetah!That would be so awesome.

OF course Winstin Churchill would be cool to show off.

If the fish changes in to any of these Justin and I demand pics!
