Looks like they were born premature, possibly due to moving the mother (just a guess). They normally swim very well immediately after birth. The "preemies" might continue to develop normally, or they might remain "belly-sliders" with under-developed swim bladders, as often happens with killifish hatched too early or too late.

Oh. Should I wait until they absorb their egg sac to try to feed them for the ones that survive.
