Christyef Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I made a critter box to try to introduce new fish. My squirrel is a bully and I’m trying this out as a slower introduction. Do you think I made the holes big enough for enough flow? They’re about 5/16” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Should be fine, surface scum can form which will cut down on gas exchange so change out some water occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christyef Posted April 2, 2018 Author Share Posted April 2, 2018 I have it breaking the surface of the water with no top. Another question. How long do you think I should leave the fish in there? Does it depend on the behavior of my fish? Or just a day or two?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Depends on how all the fish are acting so it might be a day or two or a week or two. The surface inside the critter box can get scummy reducing gas exchange, it's something to keep an eye on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christyef Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 I left it in there 2 days. All is well. I can’t seem to upload a video from my phone. I’ll try at home Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
