keeping minnows

Fill it with rocks and sand for filter... Change and clean about every two weeks, or so.

The blue stuff is Better Bait or Bait Saver. Then there's some that's a little greener that's called Shiner Life or Finer Shiner made for keeping shiner minnows. Most any bait shop should be willing to get you a jar of it. We used to buy the Better Bait in a gallon jug for around $15.00 when we sold minnows.

Thanks for the reply. I just had a chest freezer go out this week, may try to use it. Still have to figure out how you route your air / water through the bucket?

******* Small pump to retrieve your water from the bottom...Into the top and filter through to your exit @ the side around 6' from bottom. Hope this helps!

How do you keep the sand from running out into your minnow tank?
