The Tech Den Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 They will fly away in a week or two? After that they might bother you but...lol You could use a hose and suck them into a bucket through a net and just put the water back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wickkyjr Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 You could suck them out and feed them to your other fish, if you have other fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeadFishFloating Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 b/n dont have the jaws to capture them but you could catch them and then freeze them in icecube trays then b/n would definitely eat them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
