here is one use

Added a new fish? getting bullied by others? Use this sub to chase the bullie around the tank and take pressure off the new addition... :skeezy

I have wanted to get a mini sub for a while but most of them are not recommended for salt water.

I did not see anything on their website about salt water....

I wish there was one out there with a little camera in it... that would be frosty.

the two reviews on the page say it breaks easy. :) but 20.00 is cheap... bet it would scare the detrius out of your fish.

I bought one of those for the spa :P it broke in a week and I took it back.

Some colleagues at SwRI are contributing to This Project (http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.12/europa.html), that's the next one I want :D

cheapest place I found to get the subs is here:

crappy customer service but hey only $9 and they last maybe a week or two as I have already tried them! Also bought little r/c helicopter from there and it flew good enough to chase me into the wall of the house. Its in pieces but thats ok cause I am not allowed to fly anymore.

man, I am tempted, but I know what will happen... I'll put it in my tank w/ that closed loop and it will get blown around the tank beacuse it's little motors can't overcome the power of the closed loop.

that being said, if your worried about a fish, it might actually be useful for getting it out of a hiding place... but probably not.

hey need to add a wireless mini cam and a robotic arm and it would be great at getting stuff from unreachable places in the tank! That would actually be something cool to have and could start a business retrieving dead fish from peoples reef tanks. Maybe even a small kalk paste injector in it to get at those hard to reach aptasia and a small harpoon to find and destroy unwanted hitchhikers! Ok done dreaming now
