not sure how everyone does water changes on there fry tanks.
but i use a lenght of airline.(takes me ages) like it does everyone else i suppose.(unless you know a better way of course)
well i made this.
just container i got from work. with 2x28mm holes drilled in it.
1 for a 21.5mm overflow.one for syphon pipe. ( i my case a hose pipe..lol
well this is it sorry bout pics again ( but you get the idea from them)

just put a piece of sponge on the overflow to save the fry.

has picture shows its going straight down the drain. (but if you dont have a drain close by. you could always use 15mm pipe and put a hosepipe on to this.
so thats it.............
and it worked a treat. no trying not to suck the fry up. just net them out the container when your finished. (leave water settle few mins )
someone else suggested great for stooping your sand or gravel from blocking your drains. (great idea too i thought)
 
i just put a net over my gravel cleaner its very easy that way :) still get fast emptying and the fry cant get past the net.
 
I first misread your subtitles and thought you said "FLY catcher". I looked at the photos and couldn't understand what you were talking about. I was going to reply and say my 29 gallon is a fly catcher automatically but that would be irrelevent to your thread. haha :blush:

Looks interesting to say the least :good:
