Default tea filter for bbs

Wonder if this is good enough for bbs to swim out.

I think if you were to have a light source out of the container, the bbs may just swim out.

hopefully the eggs don't flow out
do you think I should provide aeration in the filter or outside the filter?

I think if you were to put aeriation inside, there is a risk of the eggs coming out. Else if you were to put aeration inside, you risk also have "dead" spots or the eggs may come out in the other direction as opposed to the placement of the aeration. Perhaps you can consider no aeration and hatch the BBS as in they ae in the BBS hatchery dish, but then that will affect the hatch rate.

Useful thing, but if you have loads of fishes, not enough volume to feed.
