I have 3 blue cory catfish and today I noticed there are 4 or so babies swimming in my tank. I also have a silverdollar and an alge eater and I wanted to know if I need to do something or if the other fish will eat them.

If the little ones are big enough to eat regular food leave them alone.after fry get enough size an nutrition that their bones, and fins develop the other fish will leave them alone. Any way the silver dollar and algae eater are vegetarians,for the most part.One thing that might help would be some veggies for the large fish to eat. Blanched zucchini has always been a favorite of my plant eaters,just take out the uneaten part after 8 or 10 hours. I doubt if the adult fish will bother their own babies,they didn't eat the eggs,so I don't think they'll eat their young.
