Marina Net Trap – Fine Mesh Fish Breeder & Isolation Chamber

Ideal Isolation Chamber

The Marina Net Trap provides a simple way to temporarily separate a fish from the main aquarium while keeping it in the same water system.

It may be useful for:

• Sick or weakened fish that need temporary separation
• Fish recovering from minor injuries
• Fish being bullied or harassed by tankmates
• Pregnant livebearers
• Newborn fry
• Temporary observation of individual fish

Fine Mesh Water Flow

The fine mesh construction allows water from the main aquarium to move through the net trap.

This helps maintain:

• Water circulation
• Oxygen exchange
• Stable aquarium temperature
• Exposure to the aquarium's existing filtration system

Because it shares water with the main aquarium, the net trap is intended for temporary separation rather than quarantine from contagious disease.

Great for Pregnant Livebearers

The Marina Net Trap can be used as a temporary safety chamber for pregnant livebearing fish such as:

• Guppies
• Platies
• Mollies
• Swordtails

It can also provide temporary protection for newborn fry until they are large enough to avoid being eaten by adult fish.

Important Use Note

This product is best used for short-term isolation or breeding purposes.

Because water freely passes between the net trap and the aquarium, it should not be considered a true quarantine system for fish with potentially contagious diseases or parasites.

Setup

1. Assemble the support frame according to the included instructions.
2. Stretch the fine mesh securely over the frame.
3. Position the net trap inside the aquarium.
4. Make sure the chamber is secure and receives good water circulation.
5. Gently place the fish into the chamber.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Marina Net Trap used for?
It is designed for temporary isolation of sick, weak, injured, breeding, or vulnerable fish and may also be used for pregnant livebearers and fry.

Does water flow through the net?
Yes. The fine mesh allows water to circulate through the chamber so the fish remains in the same heated and filtered aquarium water.

Can I use it for baby fish?
Yes. The fine mesh chamber can provide temporary protection for fry from larger fish in the aquarium.

Can this replace a quarantine tank?

Yes. Marina specifically markets the Net Trap as a floating safety chamber for pregnant livebearers.
