Looking for a few size options for acclimation boxes. Can someone point me to a vendor who carries them and let me know your experiences.

I have the elite aquatics one and it's the biggest one made that I know of. It's 12x6x6 and honestly I wished I could find a bigger one than that even for bigger fish like tangs though so they have more room.

It's made really well and is nice looking so it gets my vote

+1, I love mine. It's a little hard to feed fish if you have a screen top, it's hinged. I believe to be a must have!

I made my own out of a 2.5 gallon water dispenser from Walmart. $7 and pretty big.

Just use an old Jebao powerhead magnet or a mag cleaner to hold it to the side if the tank. :)

+1 for this one. I had to yellow tangs in one for a week. Money well spent and saved 2 fishy lives.

Ive got an Elite on order, but I like simplicity and home DIY applications too.

Suction cups pop off too easily.
