I took a gallon of water from the DT and added to nursery and have 2 gallons of freshly made saltwater on standby to readd to sump when harvesting fry is complete. Have flashlight and white catch cup ready. Now all I have to do is wait 30-40 minutes and I will go catch some baby clown fish.
Good luck Jo and catch a bunch. Just watch water levels with the drip lines and don't get sleepy for a while. My fry tanks are 25 feet from my DT and I don't use drip lines only to replace water. You have seen ClownfishSushi's method not a bad idea either but I'm not set up for it and don't feel I need it.
