Fish hatchlings (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fry

'fish hatchlings' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for fry that I've seen before include "Cook small fish this way" , "Young fish, especially when newly hatched" , "Christopher" , "Quaker Elizabeth's" , "young children" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
