Post Breeding Black Skirt tetras?

Hey folks,

I'm just watching my Black skirts spawn, yet again (happens almost every week, usually the day after every water change) I'm just wondering whats involved in actually getting some fry out of the deal? Seems like, momma swims around, one of the males follows (I would guess fertilizing the eggs) and the rest follow in tow, chowing down on the wonderful Caviar snacks...

So what do I need to do to actually get some fry out of the constant spawning attempts?

Andy

I don't have any experience here, but would it work to isolate the female and one of the males... maybe even in one of those trap-thingys that lets the eggs fall through where the fish can't get at them?

good luck.
