I just want to thank you for sharing this gentle technique. I could move my fry without any upheaval to speak of. Then I moved some of my adults the same way, and what an improvement! Your method saved all that heart-wrenching thrashing that goes on when I lift a netted fish out of the water. I’m positive it saved them no end of stress. Thanks again!

Dude there should be a you tube award for what you can do while holding a camera. In like 50 years thats the only way people are gonna be able to do anything ..through a camera.. Love your stuff !!

Nice tip - I'd never thought of leaving net in water. Love it when your little helper shows up !

Another great video! Thank you for everything, Lucas!

Hi sir am from India 🇮🇳 I liked your video and too your son ., Hi to ur son ❤️😊

Hi L, after what was a long and costly day this video was the deep breath i needed; and of course the little angel was the highlight :)

Great Tips Lucas!! My boesemani rainbow fry have finally grown up.. nine months later 😜😜, I’m sure you know what that’s like. Nothing like seeing the baby fish you raised grow to be adults though. Great Video as always Lucas! 👍I’ve been watching but been working more hours in my business and off the fishtube! Keep grinding brother!

Respect your effort when doing the fry transfer with filming.

Hello! I just wanted to say thank you for this video. I was able to gather all my panda platy fry with your gentle technique.

You are a great dad . Your son is so cute and you have a great channel.

Great tips I've been doing it the hard way. Thank you

Perfect timing on the video, got sum Celeb fry I need to move real soon. Lol

Love this video...good to remind newer hobbyists how fragile fry can be. Just netting them can easily hurt the little lads. I know...I made the mistake years ago and felt HORRIBLE when some of the fry were hurt simply getting caught up in the net seam. Best regards. - Bruce

thanks for the new content. I was wondering how you caught your fry in one of your recent videos, now I know. Keep up the great work. Someday I'm going to send you a message on patreon.

Nice video ! You make it look so easy !Lol I've spent hours before catching fry 😂😂

Geez .I recon I'd need my magnifying glass to see them. So tiny! Thanks Lucas. Hi Wesley.

Thanks for the tutorial.

Hi Lucas. I started using a krill net, which is the same type net you're using. It just has a much smaller hole in the net fiber, which doesn't allow the fry to get sucked through. Also, it costs the same as a regular net. Saves an extra step (using the tiny cup to collect them twice) and is definitely less stressful to the fry. Not to mention all the time saved. LFS told me about it a few months ago, of course to sell me a net, but it really works on all my fry, even the tiniest. Thanks for the video!

Ooops, meant to say brine net. But guessing you knew that. Works great.

Nice video and idea. Tkx

Awesome video! Those fry are teeny,like smaller than guppy fry lol hope they liked their new awesome home,I say liked cause this videos around 2yrs old so they probably got moved into a bigger tank,still awesome to watch. I usually gather the fry into the middle of the bottom of the net too,then (making sure my hands wet with tank water) I kinda scoop them into my palm while bunching the net a way above them to stop any fishy flip-outs ending in carpet surfing,then I put my hand with them inside in the net into the water then release the bunched net for the fry to swim out. I love the paper cup idea,never thought about using them before. Amazing tank room 😍 I’d live in a tank room like that! But let’s be honest,the real star of this video is adorable Wesley! I mean those curls tho 😍 I’d defo watch wesleys world,he’s such an intelligent kid,you guys must be so proud,he’s just too cute! Huge respect from the uk,stay safe and I look forward to checking out some more of your videos,I’d love to see a video of a tour of your fish room and tanks,it’s freaking stunning!

Tnk u for the info sir bretz

Thanks for posting this. Those are some small fry. Keep on tanking!

Nicely done. Maybe a follow up video on shrimp babies, berried shrimp care,maybe egg care if the female doesn’t make it....

Ive been going crazy the last 2 days. 1 year into the hobby and i had 2 cichlids i didnt know were "compatible" mate. I caught about 40 fry. I used a python hose and cups to suck them up into a holding tank.

I just got my eggs thanks im learning alot from you

That is a great way to catch them.

That kiddo ❤

Hes a cutie pie... no ours are at the bottom and okay never had any babies before that we knew of... but this is the 2nd in couple of weeks wow didn't know it all them are gone now because we didn't know what to do hubby was not interested too much, but I am so I want to keep them their all at the bottom but in one area thank goodness.

Nice

Thankyou for this, my guppies have have just had fry. I always leave the fry in the tank with the adults. Because they have lots of hiding places. Plus the adults don’t eat them. One gave birth yesterday, some are still hiding. But a lot of them are out swimming around the adults lol. But I’m getting a new tank, so I’m going to have to catch them to put them in their new tank. But I was worried about hurting them.

I have two sets of angelfish in my tank, one couple can have baby's, the other can't The couple that cant are now caring for a batch of fry, Large scale kidnaping!

Thank you for this video I thought if I used the net that I would hurt them

I have about 13 danios within three days. I use a glass to catch mine with a flashlight to make sure I got them.

Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰was worried I would kill my babies! ❤️your little one in the back round is adorable! ❤️

Wesley’s world ! Awsome. Peace and bye.

Kept waiting for that phone to end up in a tank.

I’m gonna attempt catching my 26 odd (or maybe more) peacock Gudgeon fry out of their net which is held with in the parents 21 litre tank as it def needs a clean out. I, wanting to clean the parents tank itself including gravel etc but also they fry net held within that tank floating g in the top on right side of tank. The fry net had some debris at the bottom and on pebbles weighing it down from floating up too high. I’m assuming best way is to remove the 6 day old fry to clean the net out then simply place back into the nice clean fry net . Siphoning out the main tank isn’t a problem as the parents are large and avoid the tube. But hose fry, man they are teeny weeny lil thangs. I’ll have to use a tiny scooping kitchen measuring cup I think as the net area itself is problem only 5 inches round and 5 deep. Not much room to manoeuvre in the fry net. Thanks for the vid. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers ...Lisa from Perth Western Australia

If you’d slip a bowl into the tank and then under the net the fry are in, then move both bowl and net to the new tank, you could avoid the second transfer to the cup.

Just noticed after turning the filter off for feeding in my 75 gallon tank one of my fish just had fry. I only have one tank and I'm not sure what to do at this point to keep them from being eaten. I have not turned the sun sun filter back on yet, need advice ASAP, thanks

My convicts bred and the fry are born. I think it's only been a few days. I don't want my other fish to eat them, can I take the fry out now? Or should I wait?

Hey Brother, how does it feel to be literally the only reason that my current daydream tank is stocked mainly with Rainbows? lol Just a quick question though; How would I keep different kinds of rainbows together without gettin' mixed up fry? So far all I can think of is keeping separate tanks for each kind to breed 'em and then just take out the best males for the show tank. Thanks for the awesome father-son aquarium videos!

If you are getting fry the eggs should be good. Look into infusoria and paramecium this could help you big time for giving them something to eat at such a small size of fry.

Ok

The story is about The Rainbow Fish, a fish with shiny, multi-coloured scales. He has blue, green, purple, and pink scales. Interspersed with these colorful scales are shiny, holographic scales which are his favorites. The other fish from his gang also have scales, but only scales matching to their real colors. However, they wish that they had shiny silver scales like the Rainbow Fish. One day, a small blue fish (wishing he could have shiny silver scales) asks the Rainbow Fish if he could have one of his shiny silver scales. The Rainbow Fish refuses in a very rude manner. The small blue fish tells all the other fish that The Rainbow Fish was being rude, and as a result, the other fish do not want to play with him any more. His only remaining friend, the starfish, tells him to go visit the wise octopus for advice. When he goes to the cave where the wise octopus lives, he sees the octopus, who says that she has been waiting for him. She explains that the waves have told her his story. Then, she gives The Rainbow Fish her advice: He must share his scales with the other fish. She continues that he might no longer be the most beautiful fish after that, but he will discover how to be happy. The Rainbow Fish says that he cannot share his favorite scales, and the wise octopus disappears in a cloud of ink. When he encounters the little blue fish for a second time, The Rainbow Fish shares one of his precious silver scales and sees the little fish's joy. With that one shiny scale gone, he immediately feels much better. Very soon, the Rainbow Fish is surrounded by the other fish requesting scales and he shares one of his shiny silver scales with the each of them. Soon, everyone in the ocean, has one shiny scale, including The Rainbow Fish. The Rainbow Fish is finally happy even though he only had one shiny scale left.

Are they guppies? If so you dont always have to pull them. Just make sure the babies have hiding spots and you feed the adults well. For more guaranteed success I would pull them if you have the possibility but if it seems safe for them I wouldnt bother.
