So I bred my blue gouramis in a 10gal that had previously had hydra. I figured having a big fish that eats the nuggets would keep them from coming back. I now have about 300 fry going on day #4 right now, along with about 30 RCS. I am going to take all ornaments and plants out and soak in a solution. I am an hour away from going and buying some more alum and making a huge bucket to soak everything for a few days. But the big thing is, if they live in the substrate, how many people would recommend the tedious task of moving fry and removing the gravel from the tank?
I'm currently doing 50% water changes daily with the use of a straw, airline tubing, a 4gal bucket, and gravity. Today I sucked up about 20 fry and did the slow deed of using a 50cc syringe with a straw attached to suck them up, so I can remove the gravel if well advised to.
