[Vacuuming with fry in tank]

If I am concerned about siphoning up small fish, I nestle the business end of the siphon in a fine mesh fish net until I am done siphoning.

I like that idea!

Great idea!

I did just get one, but it is unlikely that I can corral all of them. It is a heavily planted 75 gallon tank.  The plants (plastic) have done a pretty good job of protecting them from the rest of the herd, but I didn’t think this problem through. I will do my best to round them up. Thank you for the suggestion!

I have a community tank including guppies doing what guppies do, and I have two batches of fry. I tried to vacuum the gravel (and need to) but the fry swim right down by the intake!  Help!
