Koi Socks or Transfer Tubes - a must for those wanting to move their Koi safely with out damaging them.
They are used to transfer the Koi safely from the Koi pond or Koi bowl without causing damage or the danger of dropping it, to another tank, pond or bowl.
The Koi is netted Head first, if possible, into the Koi sock and pulled along under the Koi until the Koi, or any other fish, is safely inside and then it is a matter of gripping the end of the tube so that the fish does not drop out of the other end, as this end is open, and lifting it clear of the water and taking it to where you wish to place the Koi. Then it is a very simple matter of holding the net using the handle over the water to where it is being transferred allowing the open end of the net to hang into the water and releasing your grip, the Koi will then gently slide out of the open end.
