Penn Plax Aqua Nursery Automatic Circulating Hatchery

The Penn Plax Aqua Nursery is an amazing automatic circulating hatchery. Once it's properly set up in your aquarium, you can just relax until the baby fish are born and safely deposited into the separate nursery area. You can easily adjust the nursery using hangers to attach it to any aquarium rim. This hatchery has some great features. It automatically and gently separates the mother fish from the fry, which is very important for the safety of the little ones. The nursery tank can be lifted off the platform and moved to a different place if needed. It's made of safe and durable plastic, ensuring long - term use. The Aqua Nursery creates a continuous water circulation in both the maternity and nursery sections. This gets rid of the problem of stagnant water that most other breeding traps have, and helps keep the mother and baby fish healthy. Remember, the nursery needs a small aquarium air pump for proper circulation, and the pump is not included. When setting it up, first lay out all the parts and compare the steps with the drawing and photo on the box. After assembling the nursery, put the pregnant female fish into the maternity tank. Then place the nursery cover over the nursery tank and the maternity cover over the maternity tank. Slowly turn on the air power. You'll see suction from the maternity tank to the nursery tank and bubbles rising in the nursery tank unit.

Using the Penn Plax Automatic Circulating Aqua Nursery Hatchery is easy. First, make sure you have all the parts laid out in front of you. Match the steps in the instructions with the pictures on the box. Assemble the nursery according to the directions. Once it's ready, place your pregnant fish in the maternity tank. Put the covers on both the maternity and nursery tanks. Then, connect a small air pump (not included) and slowly turn it on. You'll notice water starting to circulate, and that's a good sign. Here are some important things to keep in mind. Always use a suitable air pump for proper water circulation. If the water flow seems too strong or too weak, you can adjust the air power. Also, keep an eye on the fish. Check the water quality regularly to make sure it's clean and healthy for the mother and baby fish. For maintenance, clean the nursery tank every few weeks. You can use a soft brush to gently scrub away any dirt or algae. When you're not using the hatchery, store it in a dry place to prevent damage. This way, your Aqua Nursery will last a long time and keep your fish breeding process smooth.
