<p>I too set up a breeding tank and those fish don't breed. The main 800 gallon tank on the other hand produces hundreds of tilapia fry. I discovered that I can find them swimming in the radial filter, and save them before flushing the filter. It's really too easy. All you need to do is place a strainer large enough for the tiny little fry to get sucked into, but small enough to keep fingerlings from going out the overflow tube.</p>

There is also a breeding Tilapia forum that you can follow on site. You might want to check that out. Good luck. Here is the Tilapia Breeding group link …</p>
