Doesn't quite plant well and it's hard to squeeze. Little short but not terrible. At least lets me move some things around without shoving my whole arm in the tank.
My tank is a little too deep for these to be exactly perfect. The goal I had in mind was not to have to stick my hand in after I had an explosive infestation from some Mopani wood. When I do a water change I use these guys to reach the spots I don't want to with my hands, it works and it's comfortable, a little hard to squeeze down on but it does the job
The tips of these forceps make it impossible to get plants more deeply into thin gravel. They're so thick that they end up pushing the gravel out and away from the plant. It's much easier to keep using my hands, like I was doing before.
Little to say but this feels as good as it looks. Upon opening, I immediately knew it was a good purchase
The tip covers did slide down/off after a few uses but pushed back up and are snug enough. Perfect size for my nano tank 10” deep. Other than the tip covers they seem well made and sturdy.
