Standard fish nets are often too coarse or too deep to catch small, delicate shrimp without stressing or injuring them. Dymax Telescopic Shrimp Nets use a shallow, fine-mesh design with a telescopic handle, available in square, round, and triangle pocket shapes for different catching angles.
Why Shrimp Need a Different Net
Ornamental shrimp are small, delicate, and easily stressed by a deep net pocket that traps them against mesh they can't easily escape from. A shallow, fine-mesh net designed for shrimp reduces handling stress and the risk of injury during catching.
Choosing a Shape
- Square — a straightforward, general-purpose shape for open-water catching.
- Round — suits scooping along curved tank corners and rounded décor.
- Triangle — reaches into corners and tight spaces in an aquascape that a round or square net pocket can't access.
Why Telescopic and Stainless Steel
- Telescopic handle adjusts to reach across different tank depths and widths without needing multiple net sizes.
- Stainless steel frame resists corrosion from ongoing submersion.
- Fine mesh gentle enough for shrimp while still catching small fish and fry when needed.
