Editor's Choice - Our Favorite AquaTop Fish Breeding Tanks

1. AquaTop ATP Plnt Anchors 10pc

AquaTop PA-10 First Impressions

"Good product."

I will update after the babies are born but so far this is great. We have 12 babies swimming around in our tank at the moment. The net is harder to see through but not for the casual observer. This is my first breeder box so I cant really compare with other brands. My husband got me a few guppies that apparently had been pregnant. The suction cups were adequate and held the breeder on to the glass fairly well. Not sure why some people are complaining the the separating tray floats.

AquaTop PA-10 Final Thoughts

"Works really well."

My other one was fine but I brought her out so she wouldn't get hurt. Instead of catching babies, I simply leave the mom in the top piece. We have 12 babies swimming around in our tank at the moment. I took out the part that separates the parent from the babies. It's plastic but I have used it for several months and it’s help up well. I took the out of the tank and put them in mugs but it was not practical. If you have a smaller tank, the Lee's may be the better choice.

POPETPOP First Impressions

"Only put about 30 gal."

They are now all back together, living as peaceably as fish can. I actually put it in my 10 gallon baby fry tank. Kind of a pain to remove the lid and feed the fry. This is the best floating breeder I have ever tried. He had room to still swim around and I didn't feel too guilty. I took out the part that separates the parent from the babies. The lid doesn't lock in place too snugly which make it easy to open.

"Awesome product."

I will definitely buy these kind of breeder again. The breeder box has a decent size for isolating fish or dwarf shrimp. You have to be really careful with shrimp or they die. This product is good for the price. For me, the geatest feature is that it floats and floats evenly. So overall, this is a functioning product with little issues. I have found one very unique use for it though.

3. Bashsea Mad Rack Pro

Bashsea MRP11X11 First Impressions

"It's sturdy so far."

That way the water still flows nicely in where mom is. Suction cups do not hold the box up under its own weight. I'll put the bag from the pet shop in it and cut it open. If that bottom piece fit better it would have been perfect. There's only one issue with this unit. Tired of my guppies eating their fry and found this. There is a grate that sits about an inch above the bottom of the box.

Bashsea MRP11X11 Final Thoughts

"It is perfect!"

Much easier to use and install than those tank partitions. They seemed scared at first but calmed down after about 30 minutes. I had a 2 pregnant guppies and bought this for them. So it IS possible for very small fry to slip through the slits. I got the medium and it's mostly the width of a 10 gallon tank. That way the water still flows nicely in where mom is. I've used several other floating breeders, and have always wished they were larger.

"It is nice and clear."

I popped this together in a minute and it was in the tank in another minute. My husband got me a few guppies that apparently had been pregnant. Breeder nets are available in many sizes including larger than both boxes. Suction cups do not hold the box up under its own weight. This is my first breeder box so I cant really compare with other brands. Instead of catching babies, I simply leave the mom in the top piece. Apparently my purple Betta, Dragonfruit, did not get the memo.

POPETPOP Final Thoughts

"Great design."

Two days later and we have about 20 babies swimming in the bottom part of the box. Both are designed for free floating. Neither ended up having their babies in the breeder box. Mine's been doing fine and very useful. Good quality and easy to take apart. I ordered this product for my Balloon mollie babies. As with many plastics, if it isn't thick enough, then it can break.

This is the best floating breeder I have ever tried. I can home one day and one was dead and all torn up from the sides. If that bottom piece fit better it would have been perfect. Good quality and easy to take apart. I never knew how important this was until tank cleaning time! My husband got me a few guppies that apparently had been pregnant.

"Would highly recommend."

We picked this up to use as a secondary QT box for our reef tank. The breeder box has a decent size for isolating fish or dwarf shrimp. Took me a little while to figure it out but it worked for me. I really like the design of this breeder box. You have to be really careful with shrimp or they die. Apparently my purple Betta, Dragonfruit, did not get the memo. I ordered this and it came next day.

Saim E4YKSZ09523 First Impressions

"This product is great."

When I came across this one that showed the actual inner dimensions, I was impressed. This works better at protecting babies from mom than the one room nets. We need to do mare to make sure bettas are treated better in pet stores, though. It's unsightly with big uneven seams and extra fabric. He had room to still swim around and I didn't feel too guilty. Undeniably the best seller I've encountered. This product is good for the price.

Perfect for holding my guppy babies. This is the best floating breeder I have ever tried. I didn't have the space for an external one. The dimensions for the large size are approximately 8. I tested both my tank and box water to find a big difference in Ammonia levels. We have 12 babies swimming around in our tank at the moment. I have safe little fry and more to come!

The dividers only work with the fry drop in place. It's roomy and gives them space to move around. This keeps her area better airated and actually helps flow the babies out.

"The large is VERY SMALL."

It's plastic but I have used it for several months and it’s help up well. I took the out of the tank and put them in mugs but it was not practical. When I came across this one that showed the actual inner dimensions, I was impressed. As with many plastics, if it isn't thick enough, then it can break. I have two female Bettas and a Pleco in a filtered, heated 15-gallon tank. I do suggest leaving the lid above the waterline, however, as it has two holes. No trying to get mom back out while trying to keep babies in.

"This is not a small box."

With everything out the tank seems to stay really clean. That's why I took time to come back. I really liked the fact I could add an airline for water flow. With the fry drop in you have plenty of room for temporarily keeping the females. She doesn't seem very stressed, honestly, and likes to nap in the V's. This keeps her area better airated and actually helps flow the babies out. Definitely worth buying if you need to separate fish for any reason.

No trying to get mom back out while trying to keep babies in. If that bottom piece fit better it would have been perfect. I tested both my tank and box water to find a big difference in Ammonia levels. I usually wait to write reviews but I am already impressed with this breeding box. My kids observe the fish and write notes about health and behavior. I popped this together in a minute and it was in the tank in another minute. Petzilla is larger in size which reduces crowding as the babies grow.

Not sure why some people are complaining the the separating tray floats. I also like that it goes in to the tank and not a hang on the outside type. They seemed scared at first but calmed down after about 30 minutes. Mine's been doing fine and very useful. Neither ended up having their babies in the breeder box. I can home one day and one was dead and all torn up from the sides. The funnel tray is placed too high within the box.

They are impossible to reach once it it attached. I popped this together in a minute and it was in the tank in another minute. This product is excellent, works fabulously.

"So it's a good size."

Perfect for holding my guppy babies. We did have some get stuck in the edge of the partition. Each of the four corners I thought had a cap. The dimensions for the large size are approximately 8. Instead of catching babies, I simply leave the mom in the top piece. Especially if you plan to hold the babies there for a while. I've used several other floating breeders, and have always wished they were larger.
