AquaTop AQUATOP-FN7-M First Impressions

"Well made and good price."

They are just as described and great quality, especially for the price! I have been using this net for my hot tub and it works great! I breed Africa cichlids and the nets I was getting from pet co were not cutting it. It works fine and should last another few years for the purpose I bought it. Just wish it was a bit longer but it works for my size tank. These nets are very small, but deep. I was initially scared of the other reviews, seeing how theirs had rusted.

AquaTop AQUATOP-FN7-M Final Thoughts

"Just what I expected."

We need to clean out the pond and this works great. This net did the trick for our quick little betta fish. Exactly what I needed for my 5 gallon vertical tank that contains 5 male guppies. When done using, extend it all the way. I have guppies and bettas, and this is the perfect size for those types of fish. I've had to bend it back into shape a few times. Like the radio antennae on an old car.

"So far I have no cons!"

These do the job and I like the variety of sizes. They are just as described and great quality, especially for the price! I do not have a big fish tank so, I needed a smaller net. So far, very happy to have this tool in my aquarium toolkit! Still, a good value if you need really small cheap nets. And that extends time between water changes. And these are also very reasonably priced as a fringe benefit.

"Works great!"

I love the reach of this net and that it holds its shape. Right size net for my needs, good value. I usually use small Shad so it works perfect. Mesh is tight enough that little fins don't get stuck in the net. These do the job and I like the variety of sizes. It is actually pretty easy to scoop shrimp in! Still, a good value if you need really small cheap nets.

3. AquaTop Aquarium Fish Net 8" - Flexible FN8M - Medium Hole Mesh

AquaTop AQUATOP-FN8-M First Impressions

"Great net."

And that extends time between water changes. This little fish tank net arrived on time and in good condition still in its wrapper. They are just as described and great quality, especially for the price! They were so nice and STURDY that I ordered 4 more. When done using, extend it all the way. I have been on the hunt for the perfect net for the last several months. Great so far, but when fully extended the wand is a tad flimsy.

AquaTop AQUATOP-FN8-M Final Thoughts

"These are small."

The three different sizes works best for each of the three different size bowls. These nets are very small, but deep. Glad Amazon was smart enough to carry this quality aquarium net. I figured I would try these this summer. Those bigger nets are just too cumbersome to use in there and this is perfect. Will definitely buy again if I need them. The size of the mesh is small and perfect for my needs.

"Well constructed."

Our tank is small, so this was perfect for maneuvering in the tight space. The rod extends out like an antenna so you don't have to bend down while cleaning. This little net is just when I needed for my 2. This little net is just when I needed for my 2. This is SUCH a great deal for a set of PREMIUM aquarium nets.

"Works great!"

So between feathers, bird seed and leaves this net has been wonderful! Mesh is tight enough that little fins don't get stuck in the net. Glad Amazon was smart enough to carry this quality aquarium net. The fine mesh allows me to capture fry with incident too. So far, very happy to have this tool in my aquarium toolkit! If you want a actual bait net it's twice the amount of money. It is absolutely perfect for cleaning bare-bottom tanks.

"Light weight, yet sturdy."

I breed Africa cichlids and the nets I was getting from pet co were not cutting it. I have been using this net for my hot tub and it works great! The lid on the boat fell on one of them and shattered the handle. Our tank is small, so this was perfect for maneuvering in the tight space.

"These nets a great!"

The wire for the net part is kind of soft though. This is SUCH a great deal for a set of PREMIUM aquarium nets. I actually use this product to keep my large outdoor fountain clean. If you want a actual bait net it's twice the amount of money. Don't think I’ll need the second one for quite some time. Keeps me busy so I exercise longer. I can easily clean out all the debris and just add a little water when needed.

"Easy to break."

The telescoping handle is fantastic! The size of the mesh is small and perfect for my needs. I figured I would try these this summer. Will definitely buy again if I need them. Like the radio antennae on an old car. The telescoping handle is fantastic! Kinda annoying, so a drop from 5 to 4 stars is the result of my complaint.

"Nice net at a good price."

Most nets do not have sufficiently strong handles-- these DO. These nets are actually metal wire coated in plastic or rubber or something. These are your regular quality fish nets, pretty much just what you'd expect. Excellent net, very happy with it. The birds come for drinks and baths. The net is very soft and it has a nice wooden handle. Mesh is tight enough that little fins don't get stuck in the net.

Eventually I am sure they will rust or break. The lid on the boat fell on one of them and shattered the handle. If you want a actual bait net it's twice the amount of money. Nothing is going to escape this net! The plastic handles are not very tough. They were so nice and STURDY that I ordered 4 more. This telescoping net is exactly what I was looking for.

"The netting is soft."

Their barb's got stuck in the netting. I bought these to use when I am sitting with my child in her kiddie pool. Mesh is tight enough that little fins don't get stuck in the net. Swimming pool nets are too large for my hot tub. Nice little net for little fish and has good extension if using in larger tank. My kids use it to scoop up messes in our little pond, very easy to use. I have guppies and bettas, and this is the perfect size for those types of fish.

"They're perfect."

We were too rough with it and the handle broke on the first day. I HATED trying to catch shrimp before, so I was skeptical this would help at all. They were so nice and STURDY that I ordered 4 more. Just wish it was a bit longer but it works for my size tank. But for a fish tank, that would be optimal. I have been using this net for my hot tub and it works great! It has worked very well for me and I especially like the small size of it.
