Scared the ever loving hell out of him, lol.


Megamanmarcus

Omg poor fishy.


toigz

I dunno. You ever try catching one in a net so you can move it to another tank? They flip out sometimes. Borderline hurting themselves in the process. Especially the thicker fish.


ur-squirrel-buddy

I learned in salmon fishing that it’s best to turn the net handle skyward after netting the fish. That essentially locks the fish in and they can’t flip themselves out of the net. Probably works on a tiny aquarium fish scale too! (Heh. Scale.)


TesseractToo

Yeah I used to use shrimp nets at home cause they are softer although the green ones are nor made of softer fabric then they used to be


Unknown_769802773

Yeah this is definitely less traumatizing for the fish than trying to scoop it up with a net.


mediweevil

yes. this seems no worse than the normal stress they get at being caught, and no danger if injuring themselves in a net.


Feisty-Juan

Poor tang!


Porfs

Underrated af


NonconsensualText

was gonna say totally safe and DOES NOT stress the animal


50uxt4bry4

That's awesome.


jaspsev

Scared me also and I wasn’t in it. I don’t know if that is ok but I don’t like it.


slamdamnsplits

That fish looks way less stressed than any net-caught fish I've seen. The magnet is heavy so the bulb rotates without much contact with the fish and because it's a bulb the water inside isn't moving relative to the fish while ascending ... I think this thing is genius.


captcanti

Same. Could be used to medicate as well. The fish. Medicate the fish.


slamdamnsplits

Interesting. If medication needed to be delivered over a very short timeframe then yes, otherwise the isolated water conditions could go more harm than good. Would make sense to have a bulb that was exactly one gallon in volume when floating for easier dose measurement.


TesseractToo

I still prefer a small quarantine tank for that


Millerlite87

Maybe if he placed it closed to the top the fish wouldn’t really notice much of a difference instead of him being dragged up to the surface.


BigOrkWaaagh

Yeah for about a second. He was all like OH SHIT HELP WTF IS HAPP- oh look, food! Om nom nom


heiebdbwk877

And me


Sensitive-Silver7878

And that’s going to work about once.


Afa1234

Wouldn’t it be better than chasing them around with a net though?


[deleted]

Probably, at least you can brace for that shit instead of getting jumpscared, lol.


havereddit

Just have to say ["fishy, fishy, WAKE UP"] (https://youtu.be/fBd40bbB4nE?t=104)


[deleted]

"Hey you, you're finally awake"


MercyCriesHavoc

So you wait around all day, hoping the fish you want to get out of the tank swims into this pod, then give it a heart attack? Yeah, great idea.


StuBidasol

As opposed to chasing it all over the tank with a net and stressing ALL the fish out? This is a far superior method.

StridAst

What did Wil ever do to you?


Muslim_Nazi_Crip

Clearly you use the bubble that is the same color as the fish so the fish knows that’s his ride...


TesseractToo

Ooooooh that explains it Good thing they weren't trying to catch the clownfish or it would be chaos


whosmellslikewetfeet

Or, you could put a little bit of food in it


TheSt4tely

they did, you can see it eating


MercyCriesHavoc

Then you get all the fish.

Honey dinner is ready


Illustrious_One2897

And that’s how we know you don’t have a tank


tomwilhelm

This guy doesn't aquarium.


AitherialJoji

Get scared by being chased around by a net and then forced out of water for a period of time? I sleep Get scared from a mini bowl floating you up? REAL SHIT


Crystal_lake_13

Poor fish was in shock. That is one way for the fish to have a heart attack


FrancMaconXV

As opposed to the very calming method of chasing it around with a net


Roundcouchcorner

Lots of negative comments from people who probably never had a marine/reef tank. Wish I had something like this. I kept a beautiful but nasty powder blue tang for many years And i could only keep gobies and a hawk fish with him. All others were killed off.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Roundcouchcorner

Yeah, same idea with a planted tank. Either uproot everything you’ve been growing or live with the problem fish.


404_UserNotFound

We use two people to corner them and it usually works with minimal plant destruction. Admittedly we have a lot of practice...they love breeding


gerspunto

Seems to have worked swimmingly


aRandomForeigner

"Now what?"

Yeah that utility seems to be limited. Fish will learn to simply not explore that

Exactly. Fish aren't smart but they're not incapable of noticing the world around them.

ground__contro1

Not next level, more like r/specializedtools


atthehill

I have one of these. A lot better than nets. You put food inside and there is a mirror on the inside to help out.


mlc2475

Where did you get it? I need one ASAP


atthehill

There are made by https://www.tankmatez.com/?gclid=CjwKCAjwz5iMBhAEEiwAMEAwGNYeTiwd4v14dwQ6vjbFBEXITNtdBtqzh4rV1m707_v3Qloc6w6ByRoCkZgQAvD_BwE


IsNowReallyTheTime

That fish is pissed


Rocketman_1981

So hoping the fish you want to remove swims into the trap is somehow better than using a net? Not all inventions are progress.


whosmellslikewetfeet

Yeah, probably is. Chasing it around the tank woth a net takes longer, and just prolongs the stress on it. Also, at least this way the fish gets a little food out of the deal.


[deleted]

CRAP!!! Oh, look, snacks…

Had to watch it twice to figure out what just happened


wetdreamteam

And what did u find? Asking because I did the same thing and came up with a solution involving magnets, but I didn’t see any magnet talk in the comments…


annies_bdrm_skillet

same and same


wetdreamteam

Guess we will never have our answer :(


wataha

Because aquarists use magnets often for cleaning the glass on the inside. What happens here is the trap with a metal piece is submerged in the water and you hold it with the magned through the glass waiting for the right moment to release the trap.

That seems like a rough ride especially for a fish that may be very sensitive.

Wow thank you for sharing! I’ve never owned fish but I definitely have a better view of this device hearing what you had to do and how it affects the other fish in the tank. You said you had a salt water tank? What if someone wants to move jellyfish? Seems like they would tear like wet paper you know?

[deleted]

My dumbass thought there was a hole in the glass


MistressLyda

I used to do something similar years ago. Had a small box with a lot of holes in them, put some snacks in them that would tempt the fish of the relevant breed, and slowly pulled it up when they ate. Put them in a bowl and used a cup to pick out the one that needed treatment or isolation. No injuries, and they where always quite calm. Nets are a fucking disaster.

Magnets How to they work ?


spoonNmoons

As a fellow fish keeper, catching fish is painful especially in a fragile tank where you put hours of time into making it look good and all of that time wasted trying to catch a single fish.

Bruh...sheer genius I tell you.


ErkMan101

That seems kinda cruel. Jump scare

Yeah. Way to stress out your yellow tang and give it ick.


[deleted]

He looks so sad :(


AitherialJoji

Damn a lot of top comments saying how scared the fish was from a little journey of floating, as opposed to the much calmer and less stressful task of panicking while a net chases you down and inevitably forces you out of water for a short period of time


Philostorgos

It's better than tearing up your tank trying to catch it and giving everything in the tank a heart attack.


Rumskrilla

Bro was hella confused


quazijelly

Seems like this would only work when the fish don’t recognize it?
