use mineral water bottles or tofu containers to jar them wil do!

remember to cover them up just in case they jump

If can try to delay jarring till as late as possible. Because in comm tank they grow faster in body size. If you have space constrain, try to jar those potential ones only

Thanks =) My sis took those pics. She has a special macro lens which cost her $700 (lens alone). Sorry I can't give you any advice as I wasn't the one who took those pics.

Yes ok I'll try to find those tall disposable microwave containers.

And I'll only start jarring them when they're at least 2 more weeks old. Thanks for all your advice.

Update: I saw a fry with a 180 degree caudal today =D I hope it blossoms into a HM.

I woke up today and found 10 dead fry in my tank

8 small ones (less than 1cm), 1 slightly larger one at 1cm and the largest at 2cm.

I don't know if it were the bigger fry who had caused all these deaths as I saw them biting at the dead bodies. But just to be sure, I netted out the small fry into a 'nursery' container.
