Container Discontent

Still having trouble making a good container to hold the tadpoles. The box I made out of the WireForm (r) is lumpy, with too many places for the fish to hide out of the camera lens, and I’m worried the wire ends will hurt the animals. I think it would be possible to use WireForm successfully, but it’s inelegance bothers me.

I’m now looking at taking a bowl or bottle, cutting out the bottom and replacing it with the mesh.

    why not try panes of perforated plastic or glass with holes big enough at the bottom for the doodoo to go through. probably will have to be non reflective to not interfere with picture taking. can be a small tank within a tank.
