Protect vulnerable newborn fry and isolate aggressive or sick fish with our floating aquarium breeding box tube isolation hatchery for guppy fry zebrafish betta. Designed as a self-floating cylindrical chamber, this transparent isolation unit maintains constant water circulation with your main tank while keeping small aquatic life safe from adult predators. The dual-grid design features an inner separator grid that allows newly born fry to fall safely into the bottom chamber away from breeding mothers, along with a fine mesh outer base to ensure optimal water flow without letting delicate fry escape. Ideal for livebearers, shrimp, bettas, and injured fish, this space-saving nursery tube is an essential addition to any breeder's tank.
KEY FEATURES
Self-Floating Suspended Design: Floats naturally at the water surface, adjusting automatically with tank water levels without falling or slipping.
Dual-Grid Separation System: Features a 0.14 x 0.16 in (3.5 x 4 mm) inner grid for mother-fry separation and a 0.02 in (0.5 mm) outer mesh base to safely contain micro fry.
High-Clarity Transparent Acrylic: Clear tube walls provide 360° visibility for monitoring pregnant mothers, egg hatching, and fry growth.
Optimal Water Exchange: Perforated mesh structure allows continuous oxygen exchange and thermal stability from the main aquarium water column.
Multi-Functional Isolation: Functions as a birth hatchery, shrimp nursery, betta quarantine chamber, or recovery zone for injured fish.
Safe & Compact Cylindrical Form: Smooth interior walls prevent delicate fins and tails from snagging during movement.

WHY CHOOSE OUR FLOATING BREEDING BOX TUBE
Traditional suction-cup breeding boxes frequently lose suction and sink to the tank floor, releasing fry into the main tank where adult fish prey on them. Fully enclosed plastic boxes restrict water flow, leading to stagnant conditions and low oxygen levels for delicate newborn fry. Solid mesh nets can trap tiny baby shrimp or allow larger fish to attack through the soft fabric. This floating breeding tube combines automatic buoyant surface positioning, dual-stage mesh separation for mother and fry safety, constant water turnover, and high-visibility clear construction into a reliable hatchery unit.
PERFECT FOR (OCCASIONS AND USES)
Guppy & Livebearer Breeding: Protect newly dropped guppy, platy, and molly fry from adult fish immediately upon birth.
Betta & Aggressive Fish Isolation: Temporarily isolate aggressive tankmates or protect long-finned bettas during recovery.
Shrimp & Micro-Fauna Nursery: Raise delicate dwarf shrimp or baby fry safely while keeping them within the main display tank.
