Fluval Hang-On Breeding Box, Medium, 1.1 Litre

Product Information

Fish fry can also be segregated from potentially aggressive fishes or fish species that may mistake them for food. I did see a video a bit ago on a knockoff brand that did have some tweaks and fixed some of the issues. Ziss has lots if flow , i can see it and feed it easily, and its in the main tank so uses that volume of water for stability.

Warm, oxygenated water from main aquarium circulates continuously through the breeding box with the use of an air pump (sold separately), so that fish enjoy the same conditions as the aquarium. The external one has to hang off the back of my tanks here, is less observable for me, has more temperature and parameter fluctuations based off food and flow rates. In addition, Marina’s wide variety of creative and colourful decorations – such as plants, ornaments and gravel – bring visual life to aquariums, while its maintenance and breeding accessories are practical, timesaving, and reliable. The drivers in these instances are unfortunately not permitted to assist with the pallet beyond the drop off, and cannot aid in bringing packages into the property. As a result when I'm feeding cry in the box the rest of the tank is conditioning off bbs that get through the mesh.Fluval Black Max Airline tubing is made of flexible plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and is designed to fit all standard air pump outlets and fittings. Beginners will truly enjoy the convenience of our fish starter kits and more experienced hobbyists will appreciate the reliability and efficiency of Marina filters and heaters. There's a billion mods for these things and I highly encourage you to check them out to incorporate some of these ideas into your setup for breeding.

The Ista hang on back breeding box is intended to hang on the back of the aquarium, therefore not occupying space in the aquarium. All that said, it’s a great detention center for a larger pea puffer that misbehaves (ask me how I know).Fluval has surely earned a global reputation for excellence in product innovation and dependability. A bit of craft mesh taped over the opening over top of the overflow gate would likely stop that silliness.

I like it but I put pantyhose or am cut a piece of fine sponge for the outflow as small fry swim right through the grate. Breeding boxes and fish tank hatcheries can be used when your fish breed and produce fish eggs and fry. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice.If you don't have fry, the stuff in the box slowly works its way into the tank where your other fish can chomp them down. Easily attaching to the side of most aquariums up to 1″ thick, the hang-on isolation/breeder box provides isolated housing for protecting fry, sick/weak fish or new fish that require acclimation. Fluval Hang-On Breeding / Holding Boxes should be used with an air pump that produces approximately 1 L / minute of flow. I purchased the large one and plan to leave the first and last containers with foam (something to stop fry and ease the intake) so that I don't have any issues with anything. Breeders and hatcheries can be used to segregate pregnant fish from the inhabitants of the main tank, whilst remaining in the same water.

Easily attaches to the side of most aquariums up to 1" thick, the Fluval Hang-On Breeding Box provides isolated housing for protecting fry, sick/weak fish or new fish that require acclimation. Aquarium Air Pump via Fluval Black Max Airline Tubing (both available separately) for a complete set up. A small piece of sponge or any kind of floss stuffed into the opening of the inflow tube does wonders for making the bubbling/burbling quieter.

Mine is functional and i use it when needed but I often default to the ziss box for the easy factor.
