A fiber splice tray for optical fiber splices capable of holding multiple single fiber splices, ribbon fiber splices and combinations thereof comprising a base, a plurality of adjacent opposed retention members extending upwardly from said base member to a terminal end and a plurality of adjacent opposed extension members extending upwardly from said base member in an area between opposed retention members, said opposed extension members being separated by a space for accepting at least a portion of a fiber ribbon splice. The terminal end of each of the retention members comprises opposed arms separated by a space for accepting at least a portion of a single fiber splice, wherein the fiber ribbon passes through the area between adjacent opposed first retention members below the terminal ends of the retention members when a fiber ribbon splice is engaged by the extension members. The fiber splice tray can include an opening through the base bounded by a shelf for the fiber or ribbon extending from the splice to pass. The shelf limits the upward movement of the fiber, which assists in preventing the splice from coming dislodged from the retention member. The openings are preferably not bounded on all sides, including a passage for insertion and removal of the fiber to the opening.
