lol, no really. I use a bowl and fork to strip the females. Over time I find it's the fastest and easiest way for me.
Just a bowl of tank water. Hold the fish gently and use the fork to pry her mouth open. Slowly move her back and forth and the eggs/fry will just come out.
Hard part is catchin her.I ate my fish that died.

when should i start feeding these guys in the egg tumbler? ground up nls/dainichi should work right?Comment

They don't need to be feed until their eggyolk sacs are completely absorbed. It will sustain them until then.Comment

The cylinder has a 4" diameter. I need alot of power to get the water flowing. Maxi Jet 400's coming in soon. I think 108gph should do it. hahahaComment
