I use this net every time I need to move my betta. The fish stay in water the whole time, and I haven’t seen any fin damage since using it. The smooth inner wall makes cleaning easy too.
Evan Parr –
It works well for small tanks. I prefer the SS size because it’s easier to handle. My fish don’t struggle during transfer, which I appreciate.

The net keeps my fish safe during water changes. I noticed less stress in my betta after switching to this. The design is simple but effective.
Eric Mills –
It’s okay for small fish, but not ideal for faster swimmers. I had to be careful when handling it. Still, it helps reduce water exposure.
