Morning all...

Woke up this morning and my bass have finally done it... or at least the female has, not sure about the male done his part?

Not really sure what to do next? how long do I wait before moving the rock? how do I know if any are fertilised? I'm sure there are a million threads on this but I'm just too excited to search haha!

Right, I am in a predicament now... It's day three today and at lunch I went back to move the rock from the main tank into my smaller tank to raise the fry... but 90% of the eggs had already hatched... little wiggly tadpole type things everywhere in my main tank, I tried fishing a few out and put them in with the rock in smaller tank but majority are all elft in big tank, am I best off leaving in the main tank or trying to fish/syphon them out? there must be 200 wigglers at least.

Any help appreciated

Cant imagine how I would feed BBS in a 8x2x2 surely they would never find it?
