Eggster catfish cave with removable lid for L-catfish

The catfish cave with removable lid is a product that has been specially developed for rearing L-catfish such as Hypancistrus, Ancistrus, Peckoltia and Panaqolus.

With this catfish cave you can remove the eggs of your fish or the young from the aquarium without unnecessary stress for the catfish.

Why are catfish caves essential for breeding L-catfish?

L-catfish require special conditions in order to reproduce. To facilitate egg laying and the protection of eggs and fry, catfish caves are an essential accessory in the aquarium. They provide a preferred space for Hypancistrus, Ancistrus, Peckoltia and Panaqolus to lay their eggs safely.

The catfish cave with removable lid has considerable advantages over conventional catfish caves. The opening makes it easy to remove the eggs or young animals and thus reduces stress for the male. By providing catfish caves for L-catfish, you offer them a safe space that is tailored to their needs.

Choosing a suitable catfish cave is therefore essential to ensure the successful breeding and development of your L-catfish.

One catfish cave, 5 advantages

Optimal removal of the eggs or juveniles

Removing the eggs or juveniles is easy and does not disturb the fish. All you have to do is place the catfish cave in a container of aquarium water and then carefully open the lid so that the young can escape or you can remove the eggs.

Less stress for the fish

One of the difficulties in rearing L-catfish is removing the fry without affecting the well-being of the male. Thanks to the removable lid, the Eggster catching system enables the fry to be transferred gently.

Porous material

The clay material used to make the catfish cave allows the egg clusters to adhere better inside the cave to prevent the offspring from being accidentally expelled by the male.

Partial 3D printing with bioplastic

The lid of the catfish cave is made with 3D printers using biobased materials based on corn starch. This new technology makes it possible to ensure completely healthy and sustainable materials for your aquarium fish.

Made in Europe

The catfish cave is made in Europe, specifically in Belgium.
