    I got mine here:

    You can get them here also, but they are a little more expensive:

    Re: what do you keep your ASF's in

    I'm currently keeping some in tanks, one trio in tub-setup. I would love to move to a rack system, but don't they jump out?? Mike, do you have a watering system or use bottles? I would give anything to be able to keep mine in what I have, but use a watering system instead of bottles.

    Re: what do you keep your ASF's in

    This thread is getting pretty old... just an update, I still use 10 gallon tanks for my breeders, and big tubs for my grow ups.

    Re: what do you keep your ASF's in

    Quick question Mike. Where are you able to find the tubs you're using? Do you perhaps have the brand and model number? I went on a tub hunt the other day looking for something like that and was unable to find anything that had no fang-holds.

    Re: what do you keep your ASF's in

    I keep mine in medium lab tubs. they are just big enough for a wheel.

    4 tubs with 1.4 asf, and the 2 tubs on the right are for grow out males and females.
