The Aquarium Co-Op Catch Cup is the universal tool that every fishkeeper needs. It can be hung from the side of any aquarium with ease and is used for shipping, breeding, moving, observing, holding plant trimmings, and a million other uses. This incredibly durable holding container is made from super clear plastic and is meant to withstand long-term use with your aquariums and fish. The plastic is pliable and break-resistant, even if you drop on concrete. We love to use these daily at the Aquarium Co-Op retail store.
Inspect and Transfer Fish Between Aquariums
A catch cup is useful when transferring fish and shrimp. Use it to move baby fish, sick fish, or new fish to another aquarium.
Shatter Resistant
After using catch cups for the last 20 years over 100 times a day, we knew we needed an unbreakable version. If it's knocked off or dropped while full of supplies or water, ours won't crack. Competitors use different plastics that will shatter.
Photograph and Observe Fish
Our catch cup is crystal clear, making it easy to take great pictures of your fish. This is helpful when looking for disease or just sharing your fish online.
These are sturdy and versatile in my fish room. I use it for observing, moving, and acclimating fishes. I also use it for hatching eggs in methylene blue water. I use it so often that I have three and will buy more when the time comes.

Get at least one of these for pictures
I have a few of these but keep one tucked away that I bring out specifically for taking auction pictures. Durable and crystal clear. Worth the price.

Truly unbreakable, the duct tape of aquarium maintenance
I use this cup all the time - mostly to hold tools, plant trimmings, sponges, etc. as I get my new tank established. I've accidentally dropped it on bricks a couple of times with no harm done. Great product!

Sturdy and strong
Thicker plastic than other brands. It should resist cracking. Definitely worth the cost.

Pretty good
I keep buying these so that I have one within reach of each tank-- I don't think that I can have too many. I use these for inspecting and sorting fish, tank-to-tank transfers, and incubating eggs. I haven't broken one yet, though note they do get slightly hazy with use, and also pick up a little tannin staining if incubating eggs with alder or catapa, that can be somewhat addressed by cleaning with H2O2/water solution after use. The long side opposite the lip also bows out slightly with time and use, which doesn't affect performance.

Works great for get my African dwarf frogs out of the tank to feed them. However I thought it would be smaller that it is.

Awesome Catch Cup
I am very clumsy and constantly drop things. So I am pleased to say this catchup is a wonderful addition to my tool, set. The unbreakable aspect is the most important part of it. But the signs and stability as it hangs on the side of the tank makes for total convenience. Thank you again for high-quality products.
