Breeding tanks / Nursery

Breeding tank it is a tank used for breeding fish, snails or other aquatic species. It is usually a small tank not exceeding 60l of water. Such an aquarium, like any other, has filtration, heating and basic lighting. These tanks are usually with out decorations and plants. These tanks are intended for fish that spawn or for young fish that have recently come into the world.

Thanks to isolation from other fish and parents the fry have a much better chance of survival.

The Irish market offers very limited purchase options for these tanks. It’s best to create them yourself. In the Aqua Remedy offer you can find FLOAT type aquariums, which can easily be used for quarantine or breeding tanks.

They come in different sizes and what is more important, they will not cost a fortune.
