✅ KEEPS PLANTS SAFE FROM FISH: This Fish Barrier / Floating Flora Island Plant Protector safeguards all parts of your pond plants. Its mesh net prevents the plants' submerged stems and roots from becoming food for koi and other fish. Because its top ring floats, the protector also prevents the plants' emergent leaves from being nibbled by fish at the water surface. Slip the netting over a pond planter for full protection of tender emergent stalks and roots.
✅ IDEAL SIZE AND COLOR: Measuring 24 inches in diameter at its top, this round, floating protector has room for one or more plants. It can protect water hyacinth, water lilies, lotus and other plant varieties. The plant protector's black color reduces its visibility on water. It allows the focus to remain on your beautiful plants.
✅ CAN CONFINE PLANTS TO A CERTAIN AREA: In addition to holding aquatic plants, this protector can be used to keep the plants in a specific part of the pond. Simply anchor or tie the protector to the pond bottom or bank. (Anchor and tie are not provided.)
✅ REDUCES POND CLEAN-UP: Because its net basket holds an entire plant, this fish barrier / plant protector keeps the plant's old, lost leaves from floating throughout the water garden. That feature reduces algae in the water and makes collecting the spent leaves simpler and quicker.
✅ MADE IN THE USA: This product is manufactured in the United States of America by Nycon Products. It is Nycon's model RFI-2.

Product reviews of 2' Fish Barrier

Holly N. : Does protect my pond plants

Is working to keep my koi away from my floating hyacinth.

Wayne O. : Very Effective

The barrier has done a great job protecting our floating plants from koi feeding on the roots. Our floating hyacinth have done better than ever. We also have turtles that like to hop in the barrier and it has not been damaged. Very durable.

me : Kept plants out of skimmer

Roots of plants didn't grow through net. Plants looked great and were contained.

Bruce : Helpful way to protect, organize and control floating plants

The fish barrier allows me to populate my pond with various pond plants in a way that is easy, flexible and protective to both the fish (helps provide shade and to deter predators, especially birds) and to the plants (prevents fish from eating the plants). The plants themselves are a valuable ingredient to good pond water balance and clarity.

The picture shows seven of the fish barriers, they last multiple years and are reasonably priced.

Kay : Great for baby lily pad or lotus plants!!

I have a small pond but my goldfish will decimate plants so this is really quite nice for keeping them away from the tender new growth. It doesn't seem as deep as the drawing but I also haven't weighted the tab so that may be on me.

StarCat Candy : A really neat solution for containing floating plants.

These are really great for keeping your floating plants in one place and safe from Koi who just love to nibble on your greens. I've used these to hold Water lettuce, Floating Hyacinths, Fairy Moss, Duck Weed and Water Cress (but if you use it for water cress be sure you position it in an area of the pond with Lots of water movement!). There's a little tab on the bottom which you can use to anchor the net in place using a pond weight, rock, etc. In my case I wanted the option of reeling it in from time to time to clean out any debris so I got some cheap airline tubing and attached one end to the tab on the net and the other end to a rock on shore. Now any time I want to add, change or remove plants I just pull on the line and bring it in without having to wade into the pond.
