In a classroom aquarium, a small net is the gentlest way to move a fish or snail to an observation tank, isolate an animal, or lift out uneaten food. Outdoors, the same net scoops water boatmen, tadpoles and larvae from the edge of a pond or from a sampling tray into smaller pots for closer study. Its fine mesh holds tiny animals securely, while the vinyl-covered handle is comfortable for younger hands.
Guide the animal into the net slowly rather than chasing it, and transfer it quickly so it spends as little time out of water as possible. Rinse the net in clean water between tanks to avoid carrying algae or disease from one aquarium to another, then hang it to dry. A set of these nets makes pond and aquarium work practical for a whole class of biology students.
The aquarium dip net is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and acts as the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Production takes place at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and the nets go factory-direct to schools, colleges, aquarium-keeping clubs, dealers and importers. Class sets and replacement nets are quoted by the manufacturer itself — just ask. Read more on the company profile page.
