Title: Mosquito larvae
Post by: Ron Sower on April 07, 2015, 07:15:14 PM
I have a tank out back generating these. I netted some out and rinsed them well. Need a way to feed to fish other than one at a time to make sure none escape to adulthood and nail us in our sleep.  They're cagey little twerps you know...always out to get us!

Any ideas?

I just net a bunch out and dump them into the fish tanks.  They don't last long enough to mature.

How do you get mosquito larvae? Are they from wild specimens?  And if so are you worried about diseases?

I just net them out with a fish net.  Yes, they're wild.  No, I don't worry about disease.

In my community tank most of the fish are at the bottom. Afraid if I dump them, they won't all get eaten.
