Post subject:  Breeding in barrels?

Hello,
I have a system with a 190 gallon tote and 2 55 gallon barrels. I'm tryin to breed my tilapia. I have seen a few breed in the tote, but I'm trying to get two breeder colonies in the barrels. Has anyone done this in barrels before? I saw a YouTube video of a guy who cut some holes in a pot and let it float on the surface and fry would swim into it. So I'm trying that and it's been 3 weeks and still nothing. Any ideAs?

Watch for fish holding eggs.. separate until fry appear .. catch and open mouth and rinse fry from mouth.. keep fry in aquarium until bigger..

You really must separate or many will be lost to predation..
