    I filter them in a cloth and use a spoon to scoop the daphnia up and throw them into the tank filled with fry.
    What kind of fry you have?

    I just pour the water through the net and feed it to the fishes minus the water.

    Desmond,

    Treat daphnia as you would for brine shrimps. Filter through handkerchief or BS net. My fave is a nylon coffee filter.

    Rinse it a couple of times and feed either with spoon, eyedropper or turkey baster. Discard the water that came with the daphnia... it smells really bad and you wouldn't want that with your frys.

    Keep 'em fingers wet,
    Ronnie
