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

## Questions & Answers

A: I dont think so no

A: It's a valve. It goes on the air line in between the air pump and the breeder box itself.

**Q: Will this fit on a 125 aquarium with a rim 1 3/8 inch ?**
A: Sorry it won't fit 1 3/8" aquarium edge. The mounting clearance is: high point (smallest)clearance 3/4" to 1".

**Q: I just ordered this. Anyway to make sure i get all parts before its shipped? I need it to work asap**
A: It comes with everything described. You will need a air pump and some air hose.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Well Inside or Out of Aquarium
*by N***E on June 10, 2023*

It is a bit noisy with the lid on from the air forcing the water in. I nano sponge filter works great in it though. Very sturdy. The little gate is lost so I use some filter floss to block the fry from going for a ride.
