Finer shiner is a great thing to add to the water to keep them lively and hardens the scales. If you start seeing foam and scales troubles coming! you can cool the water with a cold or frozen water bottle or throw a few cubes in a ziplock bag and toss it in Do Not add ice directly to the water because most ice has chemicals in it that will kill your bait! And when you see dead ones or ones that are swimming erratic take them out. Hope that helps you out.
Thanks GetANet! I will definitely test that out. Thanks for the reassurance!
