Introducing the next evolution of our egg collector, redesigned from the ground up with a compact hexagon profile for better placement, smoother flow, and cleaner breeding setups.
The video above demonstrates the egg collection principles and setup method used by this product. While the video shows a previous version of our egg collector, the core functionality and operating concept remain the same. The current listing features our updated hex design.
This egg collector is ideal for egg-scattering species such as rasboras, danios, pea puffers, and more. It safely captures eggs before they are eaten or lost in the substrate, helping improve hatch rates while keeping breeding conditions stable and low-stress.
Available in Standard and Magnetic versions to suit different tank layouts and preferences.
✨ Features
★ Automatic egg collection helps protect scattered eggs from predation and substrate loss. ★ Gentle, air-driven water flow guides eggs safely into the collector without damage. ★ Weighted, freestanding design allows stable placement on the tank floor in both versions. ★ Optional magnetic mounting lets you position the collector on aquarium glass if preferred. ★ Compact hexagon footprint suits breeding tanks or display aquariums. ★ Designed to work standalone or alongside breeder boxes and grow-out trays.
