Re: How are you picking up the tetras?

This is basically our grabber from a top view:

It slides under the top and nestles in the endcaps where all the sides meet. This also centers the tetra automatically on the gripper.
We cut it out of solid 1" thich aluminum, it took about 30 min of straight cutting, and a ton of cutting grease also.
