pelagic · Jan 16, 2014

I am providing another option to harrase your fish other than your cats, kids, sticks, net, or your hands...

I'm planning to get one and have it drag a piece of seaweed around.. :-D

LOL.... that is hilarious.

Very COOL and what fun to have. Maybe move the link above over to the 6-Line thread, how cool would that be to torment the 'Lil Tyrant' with one occasionally.... :fencing:

Cheers, Todd

That would be one way to exercise your fish XD perhaps if they had a perceived "predator" about, they wouldn't fight with each other so much.*

*Mine don't, just thinking of other situations.

So going to buy this! Son's birthday is tomorrow, what a great excuse!

I bought one today and I am charging it right now XD

I totally want that! Do you think it'd be okay to put in the tank? Like do you think it'd leach anything?

My hunch is no. I would not leave it in the tank though and would wash it in freshwater/tap water after use in a saltwater tank.

I sincerely doubt it. It is very small and light, couldn't handle the weight.

It's all about buoyancy. If you were to add a teeny tiny balloon....lol!

I checked it later and realized, no way. But a mini cam would be cool!! And it looks pretty interesting to zoo around. Don't smash into your prize acro!!

to bad you cant attach a small cam to it for your tank but i think my gopro would be to heavy ..

I did this about 5 years ago. was alot of fun, the problem is the sub is not made for salt water. Cleaning it very well after each use still did not prevent the motors/impellers from becoming jammed and not working. I also felt guilty for stressing out my fish for my amusement.

Thats pretty awesome... Id have to make sure to turn off all the pumps before use as it would surely end up as a shipwreck in my tank. LOL.
