Hi,

Any suggestions as to the best type of trap and bait for catching Cherry shrimps, seems lots around but no idea which work best ?
Have got other small fish like Endlers in the tank.
 
I cut the top off a small water bottle and stuck it back in to the body inverted. Baited with cooked broccoli stalk.

Worked fine for shrimp but I don't have any fish that would fit in to it so I'm not sure if your endlers would get caught. Could you bait it with something the endlers won't eat?
 
Net bent at right angles. Drop it onto the substrate drop a algae pellet onto the net. Wait a bit then lift smartly and drop them into a bucket. A green net seems to work better. I used pumpkin at one stsge but when lifting the net the
pumpkinpum did accidently kill a few.

I also like the Sam66 bottle trap.
