i have a 40 breeder awaiting zebras. when i do eventualy get some breeding zebras sould i remove the eggs from the main tank and place them into a hang on breeder inside the main tank? if so how do I remove the eggs from the cave and move them to the breeder and how long should they remain in the breeder or would it be best to just leave them in the main tank? once again i have a 40 breeder dedicated to the zebs with caves, bare bottom, external canaster, and a powerhead with air hooked up to it, and no other fish.....?

Thank you.

Do not use a breeder net! I have seen lots of fry and adult fish get trapped between the braces and die.

There are breeders that have an aerating corner to keep water circulating in the breeder which is what I would use if I had to.
