Hobby Easy Net L 17cm

The Hobby Easy Net L 17cm is a large aquarium net that floats, thanks to an air chamber built into the head, so it stays at the surface and never sinks out of reach. The extra-soft mesh is gentle on the delicate slime coat of fish and is well suited to lifting sensitive shrimp and crabs. Its black colour is harder for tank inhabitants to spot, which makes catching them easier, and the rounded corners help the net follow the glass. The mesh is set into the frame, so it does not tear or snag.

Catching fish calmly

At 17 cm wide, the L size suits medium fish and larger shrimp colonies, while still fitting between plants and decoration in most tanks. For the least stress, dim the lights, remove obstacles where you can, and use a second net or your hand to guide the fish slowly towards the Easy Net held still, rather than chasing it around the tank. The soft mesh and embedded edges make it gentle enough for shrimp and crabs, and because it floats, it will not sink out of reach if you let go. Rinse it in fresh water and let it dry after use.

Good to know

After use, rinse the net in clean water and let it dry fully before storing it, to prevent spreading anything between tanks.
