Aquarium "Grabber"

[Arcticfirefighter]

What does everyone use for a "grabber" tool? I have seen a few on Amazon like Eheim Planter Tool, but the reviews are all over the place. I am tired of sticking my arm all the way in to get to the bottom of a 22 inch deep tank.. [emoji849]

Just as a side not at the store that I work we have like 22inch long stainless tweezers. I am sure that you could find something like that on amazon or something.

That's not a bad idea, I did see some longer tweezers; however, I think most were like 12 inches. I will have to look again.

You welcome. It is aluminum and should not get rust with the saltwater. At least that is what is stated on the description.

That's why i went that route.

I've had the one you linked in the OP for years and it works fine. I'm not particularly fond of it though because the "mouth" is small and cant grab larger things. Though perhaps it is great for tighter areas.

Understand but for larger and heavier thing si prefer to wet my hands and avoid it falls and break something or the tank if it is a rock.

That's the reason I was worried about it. Numerous reviews stated they didn't like the small range of the mouth.

Ive been using the new Squidgly grabber it works fantastic, Ive been seeing their ads everywhere. I got the tip for the frags and the large tip, i like the Frag tip better. You can change the tips and they rotate. Making it easy to get underneath rocks or corals Reccomend for sure.
