Customer Questions & Answers
-
Question:
What is the size of the Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery and Hatchery Breeding Box?
Answer: The Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery and Hatchery Breeding Box measures approximately 10.5 x 5 x 5 inches, making it suitable for a variety of aquarium setups. This size provides ample space for baby fish to swim freely while keeping them safe from larger fish. Its compact dimensions fit well in most tanks, whether they're small home aquariums or larger fish habitats. This versatility allows you to accommodate breeding fish or caring for fry without altering your tank's overall aesthetics. -
Question:
How does the breeding box help protect baby fish?
Answer: The breeding box features a secure partition that allows baby fish to escape from predators. By separating fry from adult fish, it ensures that they are not eaten or harmed. Additionally, the box promotes a safe environment for them to grow and develop, as it mimics natural settings where young fish can find shelter. Many fish enthusiasts appreciate using this box during breeding situations or when introducing new fry into the main tank setup. -
Question:
Is the Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery easy to install?
Answer: Yes, the Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery is designed for easy installation. The box comes with suction cups for easy attachment to your aquarium's walls. Simply clean the area where you plan to place it, attach the box using the suction cups, and fill it with water to make your nursery ready. This user-friendly setup allows both novice and experienced aquarists to quickly establish a safe space for breeding or protecting baby fish. -
Question:
Can this breeding box be used for different fish species?
Answer: Absolutely! The Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery is versatile and can be used for various freshwater fish species. It is particularly beneficial for species that tend to be more aggressive toward their young. Moreover, whether you’re breeding guppies, bettas, or other small freshwater varieties, this box provides a safe environment for any fry that need protection during their early development. Ensure you choose the appropriate size and setup based on the specific needs of your fish. -
Question:
How does water circulation work in the breeding box?
Answer: The Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery is designed with a built-in water circulation system that ensures a healthy environment for the fry. Water flows in and out through the slots in the box, allowing for adequate oxygenation and maintaining water quality. This prevents stagnation, which can lead to harmful conditions, providing a stable habitat for the developing fish. Proper circulation is crucial for maintaining a clean and safe environment, promoting healthy growth. -
Question:
Is the plastic material of the breeding box safe for fish?
Answer: Yes, the Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery is made from high-quality, fish-safe plastic that doesn't leach harmful chemicals into the water. This ensures that the health of your fish remains paramount while using the breeding box. The material is also durable, making it resistant to cracks or breaks, ensuring longevity. Fish enthusiasts often find peace of mind knowing that their fry are housed in a safe and secure environment. -
Question:
How often should the water be changed in the breeding box?
Answer: To maintain optimal water conditions, it’s recommended to change about 20-30% of the water in the breeding box every few days. Regular water changes help remove waste and toxins, ensuring that the fry stay healthy and thrive. Monitor the water quality and ensure it matches the main aquarium's parameters to provide stability. This practice is especially important if you see any signs of stress or illness in the baby fish. -
Question:
Can I add a heater to the breeding box?
Answer: Yes, you can add a heater to the Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery if needed, but ensure any heater used is suitable for small enclosures. Maintaining an optimal temperature is essential, especially for species that require warmer conditions for breeding or growth. Just monitor the heater's settings carefully, and consider placing it in a way that prevents fry from getting too close to it. This allows you to create an ideal environment for your baby fish, encouraging healthy development. -
Question:
How do I clean the breeding box?
Answer: To clean the Penn-Plax AN2 Aqua Nursery, gently remove it from the aquarium and rinse it with warm water, avoiding soap or harsh chemicals that could harm the fish. A soft sponge can help remove any stubborn algae build-up. If needed, you can use aquarium-safe cleaners. Regular cleaning ensures that the environment remains healthy for the fry, preventing any build-up of contaminants or waste that could disrupt their growth. -

Penn-Plax Breeding Tanks 1f0d884c-d3e5-4c05-ba52-e736f14e899d Editorial Review
The product in question is a fish tank nursery sidecar that measures 5.5" long x 4.5" wide x 4.5" tall, and it does not float but comes with clips to hang on the edge of the tank. The product can work properly with any standard air pump, but some users reported that the flow holes are slightly too big, and the top lid keeps coming off. It is not known if the product works with eggs. The customers' reviews are mixed. Several users applaud the product's concept, but it was not easy to set up, and it tends to float to the top of the tank, forcing buyers to find a way to keep it weighted down. Some of the advantages and disadvantages of this product are:
