Review: Get it!!! Best breeder box ever!
Review: Nice nursery for shrimp - For starters I can say this product is really nice and handy to have, I use it for my blue dream shrimp to have their babies as I have neon tetras and a Betta (who loves to eat babies, I found out the hard way) only thing I found bad is if you leave the hose attached to it for a while and let it dry (in my case) it broke so what I did to fix this problem was to brake the grill under; only the 1 center piece and poke the hose through it as you see on the video and problem solved, I have no complain about the noise as I changed the air pump and that seems to have fixed the noise problem I can hear more the air stone than anything else. The noise you hear is my A/C

A: It comes with everything described. You will need a air pump and some air hose.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice nursery for shrimp
*by L***N on September 5, 2023*

For starters I can say this product is really nice and handy to have, I use it for my blue dream shrimp to have their babies as I have neon tetras and a Betta (who loves to eat babies, I found out the hard way) only thing I found bad is if you leave the hose attached to it for a while and let it dry (in my case) it broke so what I did to fix this problem was to brake the grill under; only the 1 center piece and poke the hose through it as you see on the video and problem solved, I have no complain about the noise as I changed the air pump and that seems to have fixed the noise problem I can hear more the air stone than anything else.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Not good for breeding - fish fall through
*by T***I on July 29, 2025*

Great for the size however the plastic pieces to level the container in align to the main tank falls off easily. The guppy fry I had in there fell through the plastic grill leading back to the main tank. In the Fluval version, there are two sizes for the grill so that it can be adjusted. This would be good just to use as a separation tank but not for breeding. This is also a lot louder than the Medium Fluval separation breeder hang on tank that I purchased. Cheaper option but may not be the best for guppy fry.
