I used this box to separate my betta from her eggs. The design works perfectly—she stays on top and the eggs settle at the bottom. Easy to install and fits well on the side of my tank. I also used it to quarantine a new shrimp, and it kept the water clean.

The box hangs securely and doesn’t wobble. I appreciate the included components. It’s a great solution for breeding without needing extra space. I didn’t use the air pump, but it’s a nice option if you want better water flow.

I’ve used this box for two months now with my guppies. It’s simple, effective, and keeps the fish safe. The separation pad works well and the balance pad prevents tipping. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a compact breeding solution.
