Hey got a question I was doing some trimming in the planted tank and mix of pristella and cardinal tetra fry came out they are just close to a cm should I leave them or raise them up somewhere else???

Congratulations! These guys are supposed to be hard to breed. I don't know much but I think you want to put them in a fry saver so you can feed them easier and that they wont get eaten themselves.

The trick I notice to breed them is don't do a water change for a 3weeks and then do a 50% water change with aged water then next day give them blood worms the fry came out yesterday and started to swim with the adults
