    Loosing Fry

    Thanks for your ideas and thoughts on this problem. I think what I will try for now, Since I can't find any holes, is to buy a second net breeder kit and put the net over my existing net. Thus making it twice as thick and also covering any holes if there are some. Thanks Again.
