So I have a couple of nems that I need to keep out of my tank, and I've tried the 3 way breeder from petsmart. Its a little too small and my bigger nem actually managed to force its way through a slit that couldn't be more than a 1/16 of an inch and got stuck. Then I did the breeder net which acts like a filter sock collecting everything that floated by, looked nasty.
So I had a friend of mine, mitchreef, help me build an acrylic breeder/isolation tank. The dimensions are 8x6x6. We went with holes rather than slits. I think it came out awesome.
