    Tip. Cut part of the base out and replace with larger hole mesh.
    Use as adult holder for breeding egg scatterers.
    Eggs fall straight into tank. Simply lift box out and place in next tank for easy relocation with no netting, marbles or lost eggs.

    Used this idea last night as a quick fix to save some live-bearer fry from a hungry sorority. Thanks heaps!

    I know at this point, the post is a couple years old. I just wanted to add something. You do NOT have to let super glue gel cure after use. You can actually use and even do repairs underwater with super glue gel. No mess and it cures instantly

    Reckon this would work with green scouring pads/filter mesh instead of buying fly screen? Just trying to think of using stuff lying around

    Wow you use window screen for a fry box. I’m trying to build a fry box and I happen to work at a huge window and door manufacturer so I can easily get access to screen!!

    Is it Oka for me to do the same thing but without the holes in the bottom? Can I just keep the top open ?

    • @BlakesAquatics
      @BlakesAquatics  4 года назад +2

      The water will get a bit stagnant and polluted without the holes and the fry are not likely to survive

    How long does it take for the glue to come off my finger? I can't open my iPad air as it can't read my finger print.

      Go swimming, or take a long bath.
      You lose more skin cells in the water, so the dead cells with super glue on them will fall off.

    I’m here to make a jail for my bully goldfish. He’s been chasing and nipping everyone when I feed them. I’m going to try this, thanks! P.S if anyone has any tips on dealing with a bully goldfish at feeding time let me know :)… I was thinking of separating him at feeding times in this box only for maybe a week or two and then trying to feed him with everyone else afterwards. Going to see if that works!

    • @BlakesAquatics

      Best tip is to put food in the 2 furthest corners of the tank so he can have one side and the others can have the other

      You put the fry in it to grow them out safely
