Hi Everyone! I am totally new to fish keeping (well, I did keep a couple of goldfish as a child like you do, but the cat soon took care of them :surprise:). I caught the bug when my boss showed me their beautiful marine tank and I thought hey - I want one of those!!! I've done my research...

I can't afford another tank and the store I go to doesn't sell separator nets but I want to raise fry. They keep getting eaten by the adult fish.:frustrated: Is there any other way to protect them?
