So at one point of another of our fish hobby we all had to improvise something for the benefit of our little fish. So as many of you may know I got many babies in my fry/growing tank and many females holding. So I have to do something when I ran out of tanks. So here it is. Four PVC pipes caped in both ends. Then the frame is the craft stuff we use as dividers. I got the one that has tiny holes. I used fishing line to put all the sides together and the zip-ties to hold the pipes to the walls. Then the top is the same stuff but bigger holes. Final touch a door big enough for a small size net. Good luck with your DIY Projects

Very Clever.

I really like it. I think it's a nice alternative to the small breeding nets.

i like that idea.and hopefully will have fry someday i can do this...only one question..when i was looking at fishing line yesterday ...for my diy project....i noticed it said it had lead in it....so i didnt want to put it in the tank.. is there lead free line?

navyscuba

They are some lead free. I have the Berkley's Trilene 6lb. But also the weight strips that sell to hold plants on the bottom are lead.
