Fish Net 6″ (15.24cm) – Bundle of 12

Description

Fish Net 6″ (15.24cm) – Bundle of 12 — All-round 15 cm aquarium nets, twelve to a bundle, for community tanks

Catching one fish out of a planted community tank calls for a net wide enough to close the gap quickly but small enough to steer between the stems. Fish Net 6″ (15.24cm) – Bundle of 12 (SKU: SFISN6) is a bundle of twelve hand nets, each with a 15.24 cm (6 in) net held on a wire frame and handle that the supplier calls tri-wire. The 6 in size sits in the middle of a range running from 3 to 12 in, and it is the width most keepers reach for on a mid-sized community aquarium. All twelve nets are sold together under the one SKU.

The supplier’s purpose for these nets is moving fish without harming their scales and scooping debris out of the water. A 15 cm frame handles mollies, platies, swordtails, gouramis, juvenile angelfish, small goldfish and rainbowfish, and is wide enough to sweep floating plant clippings or a dead leaf off the surface in one pass. Pet shops, clubs and fish rooms buy a bundle like this to hang a dedicated net beside every tank, and to keep spares on hand as nets wear out. The supplier does not give the mesh grade or the handle length; for fry or dwarf shrimp, a fine-mesh net or a small cup is the safer choice. For heavy-bodied fish or long tanks, the 8 in size gives more room.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Mid-sized community fish: Livebearers, gouramis, young angelfish and small goldfish.
• Planted aquariums: Wide enough to trap a fish, narrow enough to work between stems.
• Surface clean-ups: Clippings, leaves and floating debris removed in one sweep.
• Multi-tank set-ups: A net for each display, quarantine tub and sump.

How to Use

• Prepare the destination: Have the bag, bucket or container ready before the fish is netted.
• Use two nets: Hold one still and gently guide the fish into it with the other.
• Keep it brief: Lift the fish clear of the water only for the moment it takes to transfer it.
• Keep nets separate: Rinse and dry after use; a net used in quarantine stays with the quarantine tank.
