Which turkey baster is THE turkey baster?

 I've heard a lot about a "no drip" turkey baster being the one to get for tiny water changes and transporting fry.  Is there a specific one that's best?

I need this answered too, I had a fail turkey baster today!

I don't know. My turkey baster is from a dollar store and isn't anything special. If I'm worried about drips I just put my finger over the end. I suck up the fry. Slide a finger over the end of the baster. Put it above the breeder box, remove the finger, and eject the fry. It's a heck of a ride for the fry, but it works.

I found the one @Cory used in his brine video (linked below).  It's what he uses for brine.  Perhaps I misremembered that he or dean used it for fry too.  But If I'm going to buy one may as well be this.   🙂

If you silicone the bulb to the dollar store ones it helps quite a bit towards making them no-drip. I use it for slurping stuff up because of the volume and size of the hole.

For feeding BBS I bought these. Not quite no drip but close. The hole is really small so they're not much good for cleaning or catching babies.
