Fluval Hang-On Breeding Box – Fry, Quarantine & Acclimation Box
The Fluval Hang-On Breeding Box hangs on the outside of your aquarium to give fry, sick or weak fish, and newly arrived fish their own protected space. It makes a handy hatchery, incubator and recovery area, and because water circulates through from the main tank, it helps new fish acclimate gently without needing a separate heater or filter.
Features & Benefits
- Protects newborn fry from being eaten, improving survival rates.
- Provides a safe haven for injured or weak fish.
- Helps acclimate new fish as tank water circulates through the box.
- Hangs on the outside of the aquarium for easy observation and maintenance.
- Uses the same conditioned water as your tank, so no extra heater or filter is needed.
- Suitable for freshwater and saltwater aquariums.
- Compact, space-saving design.
