This helps keep the breeder box connected to the same water conditions as the aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it uses water from the main aquarium, the main tank should already be heated, filtered, cycled, and stable before using the breeding box for fry, shrimp, eggs, or small fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSetup \u0026amp; Maintenance Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse with a cycled and stable aquarium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect to a small air pump with airline tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjust flow so fry or shrimp are not pushed around too strongly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck the box daily for uneaten food and debris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeed lightly to help maintain water quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean as needed using aquarium-safe methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not overcrowd the breeding box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need a separate heater for the Fluval Breeding Box?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo separate heater is usually needed because the box circulates water from the main aquarium.
