Perfect for what I need!
It's almost perfect! I wish the walls were clearer, and the whole thing a little bigger but overall, its really good! The building process is a little rough, but once it's put together, it works very well. You just have to make sure you hear and audible snap to make sure it's all the way together.The suction cup works very well too!It's a perfect size for my guppy fry.It's really good value for what you spend on it.Overall, i say it's a super good breeder/fry net. Especially for how well priced it is. Definitely recommend.

Imagination is the key...
I have newly hatched newborn fry 5 days old, and from what I could see it worked very well. The fry are a little over 2 weeks now, but I did you my imagination. A turtle container. I still used a heater. And add one sponge filter for a 3 gallon in with dad and one with the babies (with water control valves) The net breeder/holder reaches the bottom. I was able to use a piece of driftwood and some real floating plants. Dad is right next to his babies and can't get to them to eat them. Still a concerned daddy...You may have to super glue suction cup to breeder bar.

Does it's job
The reviews that said this thing was a pain to put together were absolutely right. It took 2 people about 10 minutes just to snap things in place because they didn't want to snap. Also the "float" function of this did not seem to work.We are using it and it is doing it's job of keeping our fry safe, after we positioned it as high as possible in the tank.Yes, the suction cup is small & very cheap, but it is still currently holding after 2 weeks of use

Save your money and buy a small tank
I have tried using this several time over the past 9 months. first time the pins that hold the basket fell off overnight. Lost all of my fry. Second time I zip tied the basket to the suction cup. the suction cup came loose over night. Again, lost all of my fry. Third time I cleaned the glass real good but the suction cup came loose again. Again, lost all the fry.Basket it self is ok. The mount is horrible. Just use a separate small tank and a gravel cleaner to do water changes. Since I started doing that, I have has a lot of success.

Very nice for the price
In reading some reviews about this being difficult to assemble as it doesn’t come with helpful instructions. I watched a video on YouTube showing assembly prior to purchase which was very helpful. It only took a few minutes to put it together, it just needs a little patience, but is very solid once you have it together. Seems like it will serve the purpose and is nice for the price. I figure if the suction cup fails as some have noted I can devise a way hang it from the rim of the tank.

Buy one that clips into tank, not suction cups.
Used it for the baby fry fish in the tank with other fish and woke up to it somehow unsuctioning itself and the breeding box at the bottom of the tank. It would have been 5 stars but relying on suction cups should be a no brainer. So now I went from 25 fry too 1 fry that I can see cause im sure my other fish ate them. Don't waste your money, get one that clips onto the damn tank!!

Solid construction..Best one out there..
The media could not be loaded. Let's start with the good....Its solid, well constructed does the job..Like that it raises and lowers with the water level...There are no gaps in the net for the fry to escape or have it stretch out..The frame has a raised lip on top to keep the fry from escaping.This is an excellent constructed unit..Now the not so good..There is only one section cup securing it to the glass..After reading another review, I just added 2 more suction cuos..Perfect..When you begin to assemble this unit.Inspect all the parts. Take note of all the variations from one side to the other.If your having a hard time connecting the parts, the tab into the open slot. you more then likely have the wrong side.Double check and recheck.When you think you have it right, check it again..This is not an simple assembly.If you're not patient, and have a hard time figuring things out.If you don't have soft hands and you try to force it together.You will break it...This is not for you.I gave a 5 star 🌟 rating.The assembly, id give 3 stars ⭐Its a real pain, if your not careful..
