It seems like a must-have item but I can't find any good ones online.
 
A few months back Serious Reefs made a video on how to make your own acclimation box by getting a plastics/acrylics company to cut you specific size pieces and then you glue it together yourself. I followed the measurements they had for a 180 gallon tank (which is what I have) and it was way too big. I built a box that was basically 12" x 12" x 12" and it cost $40 for someone to cut the acrylic.

I am planning on reducing the measurements a bit and trying again. You have to subscribe to their Patreon to see the video, although free Patreon trials seem to be common.
 
Reefing Art makes any size. Mine is 12in but they make up to 16in. Ordered from Amazon. Keep the lid above water level so small fish don’t escape the feeding ports
