"99 or whatever this was."I have guppies and bettas, and this is the perfect size for those types of fish. Way better than having to go to the store to buy only one at the same price. Net is square and fine so as not hurt fish or remove small particles from water. Mesh size is great for collecting leaves. So far, very happy to have this tool in my aquarium toolkit! Probably the best thing I have gotten! They aren't anything special, just solid and a great value.

Fluval 11256 Final Thoughts
"Well constructed."The lid on the boat fell on one of them and shattered the handle. Most nets do not have sufficiently strong handles-- these DO. The mesh net is very fine and nicely captures everything. These do the job and I like the variety of sizes. Love that it is a four pack because we will have extra. It works perfect for my 20G and 29G. Nothing is going to escape this net!

"Well made."Nothing is going to escape this net! We need to clean out the pond and this works great. The plastic handles are not very tough. Net end is sorta flexible giving better options round to oval like. Great net, just wish it was a little bit bigger. We need to clean out the pond and this works great. I breed Africa cichlids and the nets I was getting from pet co were not cutting it.

Great telescoping net good for storing. Have bought nets before and width was measurement used.

"Would buy it again."Like the radio antennae on an old car. I've had to bend it back into shape a few times. Works good, the extendable handle is nice. The birds love my water fountain and we do have it near our bird feeder. The three different sizes works best for each of the three different size bowls. I will probably end up with one of these for each tank before I'm done. I actually use this product to keep my large outdoor fountain clean.

"Would buy it again."I do not have a big fish tank so, I needed a smaller net. Have bought nets before and width was measurement used. Don't think I’ll need the second one for quite some time. This one was perfect and almost free. Fully collapsed is perfect for my particular pond. Got the 3inch size and its working well to skim my inflatable pool. This is a great sized net for almost any size tank.

"The net itself is tiny."Very nice for smaller tanks or large tanks. My kids use it to scoop up messes in our little pond, very easy to use. Works good, the extendable handle is nice. So between feathers, bird seed and leaves this net has been wonderful! The fine mesh allows me to capture fry with incident too. I bought 3 and will buy them again.

"Net is a little soft."Excellent net, very happy with it. I can easily clean out all the debris and just add a little water when needed. Those bigger nets are just too cumbersome to use in there and this is perfect. When done using, extend it all the way. This is SUCH a great deal for a set of PREMIUM aquarium nets. 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.

"May be a while!"I'm sure that'll break eventually, but it's held up okay so far. Mesh size is great for collecting leaves. The birds come for drinks and baths. I have a 29G and a 20G long shrimp tank. These nets are actually metal wire coated in plastic or rubber or something. Great net, just wish it was a little bit bigger. I will probably end up with one of these for each tank before I'm done.
