One thing to plan for

At 16.5 x 8.25 x 8.9cm this is a small trap, sized for a fish to sit in temporarily rather than live in — the card gives no guidance on how long a pregnant fish should stay in it, so it's worth researching your specific species' gestation rather than guessing.

Why we chose it

A trap this size takes up almost no room in a tank that doesn't have space for a full breeding setup. Doing double duty as an isolation space means it isn't a one-purpose purchase sitting unused most of the year.

Brand: Marina

Full description

Livebearing fish don't announce when they're close to giving birth, so the safest plan is a separate space ready before it happens rather than a scramble once fry start appearing in open water.

This is a floating breeding trap with a central divider allowing two pregnant fish to be housed at once, each with a V-shaped bottom compartment that lets newborn fry drop through and out of reach of the adults. It measures 16.5 x 8.25 x 8.9cm, and outside of breeding season it doubles as an isolation space for an injured or aggressive fish.

One thing to plan for. At 16.5 x 8.25 x 8.9cm this is a small trap, sized for a fish to sit in temporarily rather than live in — the card gives no guidance on how long a pregnant fish should stay in it, so it's worth researching your specific species' gestation rather than guessing.

Who it's for: owners of livebearing fish who want fry to survive their first hours, and who'd rather have a spare isolation space ready for an injured or aggressive fish than none at all.
