Darrell Quadling Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I have invested in the usual plastic breeding traps, incl the ones that have a dividor and small filter...but found my swordtails freaked out in the confined space..so I looked around & found for $3 a clothes peg basket complete with hook ...next time the female was due ( every 30 days ) I droped her into this basket that was hanging from the hook on the side of a small tank..and yes worked perfect...lots of holes for fry to excape through..plenty of frash water passing through..BOTH MOTHER & I HAPPY..yea !

Darrell Quadling Posted January 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 glad to be of help..I also found I could place 3 female in the trap at one time which helped calm them down and get on with the job ..LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
