LILYS PET Stainless Steel Aquarium Tank Aquatic Plant Tools Sets 3 in 1

I’ve had this set for a few years now and I can say that they are good quality and worth the purchase for me. Read more

So far, and I've had this set for a few years now, these tools have not rusted or anything and have done their job to perfection. They're still in excellent condition and really helped with my brief dabble in aquascaping. Seriously, when will I stick with a hobby?! Read more

So fare, I love this set. I did a lot of research and this set had the best ratio of good ratings. I have been exceptionally cautious after reading reviews, to wipe them down after each use, for fear of rust. But, so far so good. I've had them a few weeks and see nothing to indicate that might happen, however I continue to wipe down. The straight tweezers gets the most use really and I find that with the angle on the other tweezers, they end up being a little longer (they are the same length but the curve reduces how far down I can get the root of a plant...it could also be that I am not adept at the use of the other one, or that it may be better for more delicate plants or something). The same holds true for the straight scissors, they give you just a little more reach, but again I think I have to get used to the curve. Think it depends on the leaf size or what you are trimming. The small, flat hoe was effective on the sand substrate in my shrimp tank. For my set up I probably could have gotten away with just the straight tweezers, the straight scissors, and the hoe, but I don't think I saw a set of those specific three instruments. I'd just go ahead and get this set. UPDATE: 6 months later going strong and knock on wood NO RUST. Great set. Highly recommend. Note that I do wipe them after each use, but I've probably missed doing that once or twice, but still NO RUST. Not sure what the other raters are talking about, could it be a different product? I don't even think these would rust if I left them soaking. Read more

These tools appear too be well made and sturdy. They are easy to use and work well in my 28" deep terrarium. I use the scissors to trim my plants, and the tweezers to remove the cutting and other debris that is beyond the reach of my hands. Overall, a nice set of useful tools for a reasonable price.

Far less expensive than other alternatives. Considering that you'd have to spend somewhere around $30+ for a similar set, I'm very pleased with the quality of these Aquarium tools. If you feel like you don't really need to have medical grade equipment, which you likely don't, I'd recommend pulling the trigger on these if you're into aquascaping or just want to be able to trim plants without having to do a water change every time. Update: Still no rust on my set at all, as some reviewers have described. I would recommend to rinse off your tools after use with clean water (no soap or cleaning products) and dry them off immediately, as I do to avoid potential rust. Also still sharp and useful as I expected. Read more

I bought these for a planted freshwater setup and they work fine. The scissors are not razor sharp, but still work good and are a nice length. The tweezers have very good alignment and grip area grooving. I use the angled tweezers for planting and found that shrink wrapping the grip area is perfect for making them gentle on the plants. I left the straight tweezers bare for general grabbing. I see some complaints about rusting on here, but after a couple months of steady use mine are still spotless. I just wipe mine off, but I would rinse them off if used in salt water. I've been lazy and not even wiped them a couple times and still no rust. The tweezers I recieved look different than the ones in the listing but otherwise exactly as described. Again, for the price, good stuff. Just don't expect a surgeons tool set. Read more

I bought these tools for my aquarium over a year ago. The tools are still in great condition. The scissors have a few small discolored spots (possibly from fishfood or other detritus). The spots seems superficial and could easily be buffed out. In the beginning, I was very careful to dry the tools after each use. I no longer even dry them and have had no issues with rust. This really is a good set of tools. Update: It’s been another year (at least!) and the tools are still great. I never dry them and never have issues. Read more

These are decent, they're metal so theyll likely last. However the forceps converge about 2/3 of the way up the base, so if you need to reach something at the very bottom I still had to put my hand in the water Read more
