I used to put vinegar eels mixed with the vinegar from an eyedropper into the water with the fry. I figured it would only acidify the water a little bit and the fish can figure out where they are and eat them. Filtering them out and rinsing them just seemed unnecessary. Now I use microworms instead though. Less mess and easier to collect.

Shango, for us that have been at it awhile, it was the only filtering media in our HOB filters for years.
