filter protection

[fishgirl53 3]

I want to be able to put my fry in the pump section of my sump I have a Jecod pump am I able to get a filter protection to put over the water intake or would that restrict the pump too much thanks

Haven't tried it but would assume that if a fry swims against the protection (mesh?) the current could still be strong enough to hold them there.  Personally I would either put a large mesh cage over the whole pump to keep the fry away from the intake current or use a mesh "baffle" to separate an area from the pump.
