Detailed Product Description (500+ Words):

The YINSHENG WT-2003 Breeder Box is a compact and reliable solution for fish enthusiasts who want to safely breed or isolate fish within their aquarium. Measuring at 132x68x73mm, this small yet durable breeder box is designed to help you manage various fish care situations like breeding, quarantine, or protecting weak or injured fish. It offers a stress-free environment for the fish, with ample water flow and space for healthy growth. Made from high-quality acrylic, this breeder box ensures durability and easy visibility while maintaining a clean and modern appearance in your aquarium.

Key Features:

  • Compact Design: With dimensions of 132x68x73mm, this breeder box is small enough to fit in most aquariums without compromising on space, making it ideal for both small and large setups.
  • Clear Acrylic Material: The transparent design allows easy monitoring of the fish inside, ensuring they are safe and healthy.
  • Easy to Install: Suction cups make it simple to attach to the sides of your tank without requiring any complicated setup or tools.
  • Ventilated for Water Flow: Proper water circulation is critical for keeping water conditions optimal, and this breeder box is equipped with ventilation slots that ensure a continuous flow of water.
  • Versatile Usage: Suitable for breeding livebearers, protecting delicate fry, isolating aggressive fish, or giving injured fish a safe space to heal.

Water Conditions:

To ensure the best environment for your fish while using the YINSHENG WT-2003 Breeder Box, it's essential to maintain ideal water conditions:

  • Temperature: Suitable for a wide range of species, this breeder box works well in aquariums with water temperatures between 24-28°C (75-82°F).
  • pH Level: Fish will thrive in water with a pH level between 6.5-7.5, depending on the species.
  • Water Hardness: Maintaining moderate hardness levels (5-12 dGH) will benefit most fish housed within the breeder box.
  • Filtration & Water Quality: Ensure your aquarium's filtration system is operating correctly to maintain high water quality. Since the breeder box allows water flow, it benefits from the tank's filtration, but regular water changes may be required.

Suitable Tank Mates:

While the YINSHENG WT-2003 Breeder Box is primarily designed for temporary housing, it's important to consider compatibility with the fish species already in your tank:

  • Livebearers: This breeder box is perfect for species such as guppies, mollies, platies, and swordtails, which are commonly bred in home aquariums.
  • Small Tetras and Danios: These peaceful species can also benefit from using the breeder box during breeding or if they need temporary isolation.
  • Aggressive or Territorial Fish: Larger or aggressive fish like cichlids or bettas may require the use of this box to protect smaller or weaker tank mates from harm.

Feeding Habits:

Proper feeding is essential for the health of fish housed in the breeder box. Here are some feeding tips:

  • Fry Feeding: If using the breeder box for fry, feed them finely crushed flakes, live baby brine shrimp, or specialized fry food. Be careful to avoid overfeeding, as uneaten food can quickly pollute the small space.
  • Isolated Fish Feeding: For injured or quarantined fish, maintain their regular diet but offer small amounts at a time to prevent overfeeding and ensure water cleanliness. Depending on the species, high-protein foods like bloodworms or daphnia may be ideal to help with recovery.

Care and Maintenance:

Taking proper care of the YINSHENG WT-2003 Breeder Box is essential to prolong its life and ensure it remains a healthy environment for your fish:

  • Cleaning: Regularly clean the breeder box to avoid algae buildup. Use a soft sponge to wipe down the walls, being careful not to scratch the acrylic.
  • Monitor Water Quality: Since the breeder box has limited space, it's crucial to monitor ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels in the main tank to prevent water contamination.
  • Inspect Suction Cups: Periodically check the suction cups to ensure the breeder box remains securely attached to the tank. If the suction weakens, clean the cups or replace them if necessary.
  • Careful Observation: While the breeder box offers protection, closely observe fish behavior inside to ensure they are not stressed and are eating and swimming normally.
