Where I live it can be difficult to get minnows. One of the stores/bars is closed every Monday and most Tuesdays. Usually shuts down after snowmobile season until fishing opener in May. So I have tried to make my own minnow tank. Bought a 35 gallon heavy black plastic tank from L&M. Have a water filter installed and an aerator. I seem to have a high number of dead minnows each day. Usually buy minnows ever two weeks, so I would think they should last awhile. Tank is in a heated garage but the temp is kept around 55 degrees and the tank sits on the floor. Wondering if my filter (which they said should be good for a 50 gallon tank) is working or doing what it should. Anybody else try to keep minnows, and what kind of lucid do you have?
