Catch the Pigeon !!! (BN Fry)

Subject: Catch the Pigeon !!! (BN Fry) Fri May 13, 2011 10:56 am

Morning all,
I have about 25 BN fry in one of my tanks and decided to try and put them into a trap to keep them safe until they are big enough to survive on their own after the last batch all got eaten.
Am I missing something or is there an easier way to catch these lil things.
So far I have managed to catch 5 but they are so so fast.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Darren

P.S. Catching the pigeon would be easier !!! (Dastardly and Mutley for those of you not old enough !!)

There is a thread about catching HERE

It's best to move the male, cave and eggs/fry into a fry saver before thay become free swimming.
