What do you think about floating breeder traps? I bought one to segregate an aggressive male, but that problem's fixed. Now I have some pregnant guppies and was thinking about putting one in, just to see the fry.
But, it looks like the fry would drop through this "V-insert" to the bottom of the trap, and then there are slits, and I wonder if they would drop through those too, just to fall into the main part of the tank, so I may not see them anyway (not sure if they fit through those bottom slits though).
And, I think it might stress out the poor girl to enclose her when she's preggers and ready to burst. She's the size of a house!
Okay, and I should add that I am not out to save any fry. If they survive, great, if not, then I will be that much farther from overstocking my tank.
Hmm... looks like I just talked myself out of the breeder trap, but I'd like to hear your opinions anyway!
