Reef Gently’s AccliMate

What a great idea. a single unit that allows you to move, acclimate or trap fish/corals/other (though why you would need to trap a coral, I’m not sure).

AccliMate

AccliMate


Using a dual box design, the inner box acts as a strainer while the outer box contains the water (when used as an acclimator (a new term!) or carrier).

The contents come with the dual container, a drip tube and clamp to adjust flow, a tank edge hanger that will accommodate euro-style edged tanks up to 5 inches deep and a length of fishing line for the trap.

The unit also comes in a larger size 8x8x8 inches and includes a divider to house 2 fish.

Check out these features:

1. Strainer –doubles as a bristle worm trap.
2. Cover — doubles as a fish trap door.
3. Universal Tank Hanger — Accommodates straight, bow front and Euro-braced (up to 5″) tanks .
4. Drip Tube — used in drip acclimation.
5. Tube Clamp — to control the acclimation rate.
6. Cinch Strap — secures the unit to the hanger.
7. Fishing Line — used in the fish trap mode.
8. Outer Container — brings it all together.

Dimensions: 7 3/4″ x 3 1/2″ x 6 1/8″

This video shows how it is used (8mb wmv format). Very ingenious.
