Bioscape Telescopic Fish Net 7 x 7cm - 21-40cm Long with Extendable Handle

Description

• Extendable: 21-40cm
• Stainless Steel 
• 7 x 7cm Net

Key Specifications:

• Telescopic Fish Net: The handle extends and retracts, offering adjustable length for convenience and storage.
• 7 x 7cm (Net Head Size): This is the defining feature, indicating a tiny, square net head.
  • 7 cm (approximately 2.75 inches) is the width.
  • 7 cm (approximately 2.75 inches) is the height.
  • This size is specifically designed for:
    • Pico tanks/Bowls: Extremely small aquariums where even the 10x8cm net would be too large.
    • Fry (Baby Fish): Perfect for carefully transferring very young fish without harming them.
    • Very small nano fish: Such as smallest chili rasboras, some micro gobies, or other extremely tiny species.
    • Small shrimp: Excellent for precisely catching very small or young shrimp (e.g., Red Cherry Shrimp juveniles).
    • Targeted debris removal: For picking out minuscule pieces of detritus or algae in highly intricate aquascapes.
• 21-40cm Long (Handle Length): This indicates the adjustable length of the handle.
  • 21 cm (approximately 8.3 inches) is the shortest, retracted length.
  • 40 cm (approximately 15.75 inches) is the longest, extended length.
  • This compact range is perfectly suited for accessing small tanks, even those on a desk, without excessive handle length getting in the way.
• with Extendable Handle: Reaffirms the "telescopic" feature.

Why this specific net is useful:

• Precision for Smallest Tasks: Its minute size allows for unparalleled precision when working in nano or pico tanks, or when dealing with fry and very small invertebrates.
• Minimal Disturbance: Reduces the risk of disturbing the entire aquascape or stressing other, larger tank inhabitants during targeted operations.
• Ideal for Delicate Critters: The small, fine mesh is gentle on the most delicate fry or shrimp, preventing injury.
• Ultra-Compact Storage: It's the most compact of the range when retracted, fitting into almost any small storage space.

Considerations when using this net:

• Extremely Limited Fish Size: This net is ONLY suitable for very small fish, typically under 1-1.5 inches. Attempting to catch larger fish will be ineffective and stressful.
• Patience: Catching tiny, fast-moving fry can still require patience, even with a perfectly sized net.
• Net Hygiene: Always rinse thoroughly with clean, dechlorinated water before and after use to prevent introducing contaminants or spreading diseases.
