Fish jail for introducing new fish?

[miatawnt2b]

I have not had good luck introducing new fish in my tank. Recently added a smallish sixline to my tank and he was picked on so much by the coral beauty and yellow tang that he stayed behind a seio pump all the time and eventually died from not being able to come out and eat. So I was thinking of building some sort of 'jail' for new fish introduction that can be put in the tank with the new fish inside for a few days while the others get a good look at it and get used to the new tankmate. Does such a product exist? I was thinking of some sort of clear acrylic box, with holes drilled for flow that could be attached to the side of the tank with magnets.

Thoughts?

There are a number of products like this.
Depending on the size of the fish.

I believe most are advertised as acclimation boxes or something of that nature.

I use a breeder container, take out the dividers and tie it to the top of the tank. Leave the new guy in there for most of the day to 'socially acclimate'. Has worked well for me.
