Aqua Medic Double Sucker Twin (3 Pcs/bag)

Description

Aqua Medic Double Sucker Twin (3 Pcs/bag) — Double suction cups for mounting the Aqua Medic Fish Trap on the aquarium glass

A fish trap standing on the sand only catches fish that come down to it, and the fish that need removing are often the ones holding a territory high in the rockwork. Aqua Medic Double Sucker Twin (3 Pcs/bag) (SKU: AM41811) is Aqua Medic’s pack of three double suction cups (item 418.11), made from a highly flexible material and designed to fix the Aqua Medic Fish Trap to the inside glass of the aquarium. Aqua Medic recommends three double suckers for secure fixing of one trap. Fixed this way, the trap no longer needs to rest on the substrate, so it can be placed where the fish actually live, which Aqua Medic says makes catching easier than before.

Each piece is a twin cup, one face pressing onto the glass and the other onto the smooth wall of the trap, so the trap is held against the glass without clips or brackets over the rim. Aqua Medic also notes that the double sucker can be used to join other items with smooth surfaces to each other. Like any suction cup, it seals most reliably on clean, smooth glass, so algae and coralline should be scraped from the spot first. The maker does not publish a cup diameter or a load rating, so the three-cup arrangement Aqua Medic recommends is the sensible way to share the weight of a trap.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Catching a fish up high: Mounting the trap at the level where the target fish swims.
• Rock-filled reefs: Tanks with little open sand to stand a trap on.
• Replacing worn cups: Restoring grip when old suckers have hardened or lost their hold.
• Joining smooth parts: Connecting two smooth-surfaced items, as Aqua Medic suggests.

How to Use

• Clean the glass: Remove algae and coralline from the spot so each cup can seal.
• Use all three: Fit three double suckers to the trap, the number Aqua Medic recommends.
• Press firmly: Push each cup flat against the glass to expel the air.
• Test before baiting: Check the trap holds steady before setting it for a catch.
