Petzilla PBI-1 Final Thoughts

"Works like a charm."

The tube for the bubbler is a nice touch. It would have been nice to have the suction cups. Tired of my guppies eating their fry and found this. Instead of catching babies, I simply leave the mom in the top piece. I have found one very unique use for it though. I personally use these to introduce smaller fish into my community tanks. There is a grate that sits about an inch above the bottom of the box.

"Mines in the mail ."

I have found one very unique use for it though. There is a grate that sits about an inch above the bottom of the box. As with many plastics, if it isn't thick enough, then it can break. I put three pregnant females in the box immediately. My other one was fine but I brought her out so she wouldn't get hurt. I have noticed that with all they pieces in that food does not exit the bottom half. I personally use these to introduce smaller fish into my community tanks.

Petzilla PBI-2 Final Thoughts

"Good plastic box."

It works as it is designed to do and kept my fry safe. I have two female Bettas and a Pleco in a filtered, heated 15-gallon tank. If that bottom piece fit better it would have been perfect. With the fry drop in you have plenty of room for temporarily keeping the females. Lets in just enough new water to keep it clean, but not too much to have a current. They seemed scared at first but calmed down after about 30 minutes. This product is good for the price.

"So it's a good size."

I really liked the fact I could add an airline for water flow. The lid doesn't lock in place too snugly which make it easy to open. If that bottom piece fit better it would have been perfect. I don't see how they send used stuff out as new! For me, the geatest feature is that it floats and floats evenly. So it IS possible for very small fry to slip through the slits. Future design improvement- less room for fry, more room for moms.

Petzilla PBI-3 Final Thoughts

"Great item!"

I also like that it goes in to the tank and not a hang on the outside type. If that bottom piece fit better it would have been perfect. They are now all back together, living as peaceably as fish can. I took out the part that separates the parent from the babies. It is large enough for fish bigger than guppies. It would have been nice to have the suction cups. I didn't have the space for an external one.

I didn't have the space for an external one. I bought one to try it out, and it's been excellent. There is a grate that sits about an inch above the bottom of the box. Fits nicely in a size 10 gallon tank. I really like that it has suction cups, and is very sturdy on the glass. I'll put the bag from the pet shop in it and cut it open.

"So the netting like."

I will definitely buy these kind of breeder again. With the fry drop in you have plenty of room for temporarily keeping the females. It's a decent size for an internal breeder box. Hope you found this review helpful! I put the rainbar into it so now they can't escape. Mine's been doing fine and very useful. They are impossible to reach once it it attached.

"Awesome product."

There is a grate that sits about an inch above the bottom of the box. I feel like this breeder box is sturdier than some others that I've used. 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. I left it out and the babies were sneaking out through that hole. I don't see how they send used stuff out as new! There are slats in the bottom for the babies to escape to, to keep from being eaten.

"It's nice an big."

For me, the geatest feature is that it floats and floats evenly. The dividers only work with the fry drop in place. I ordered this product for my Balloon mollie babies. I had a 2 pregnant guppies and bought this for them. I put three pregnant females in the box immediately. Worked well, water and air flow is minimum due to slots being very thin. I have safe little fry and more to come!

"Clear plastic EZ to use."

This product is good for the price. He's happy just sitting on his plant blowing bubbles. Apparently my purple Betta, Dragonfruit, did not get the memo.

"Would recommend."

It's unsightly with big uneven seams and extra fabric. Perfect for holding my guppy babies. I do suggest leaving the lid above the waterline, however, as it has two holes. The dividers only work with the fry drop in place. I bought one to try it out, and it's been excellent. The dividers only work with the fry drop in place. Much easier to use and install than those tank partitions.

I highly recommend this product, simple and easy to use! I took out the part that separates the parent from the babies. This is the best floating breeder I have ever tried. She doesn't seem very stressed, honestly, and likes to nap in the V's. Now he's chilling in quarantine until he heals. First one arrived used with gravel and a hole in it. The suction cups hold well, and it has floating handle chambers as a backup.

This works better at protecting babies from mom than the one room nets. Each of the four corners I thought had a cap. I bought one to try it out, and it's been excellent.

"This product is great."

It comes with 2 removable dividers and a removable fry drop slotted piece. I also like to put in a bowl with acclimating. Suction cups do not hold the box up under its own weight.

We picked this up to use as a secondary QT box for our reef tank.

"Just Kidding!"

It comes with 2 removable dividers and a removable fry drop slotted piece. The little air tube connection on the side is a nice addition too. Good quality and easy to take apart. There's only one issue with this unit. The seller, Pawfly, was very nice about it. The plastic is much thicker than the last box I bought for the same price. The net is harder to see through but not for the casual observer.

You have to be really careful with shrimp or they die. He had room to still swim around and I didn't feel too guilty. I currently have about 30 or so new babies in it.
