Catfish Cave 10cm

AquaKeramik catfish cave made of clay Ø 25 mm length 10 cm front entrance This clay cave is closed on one side with a length of about 10 cm and a diameter of about 2.5 cm. Front entrance burrows of this size are often used for the breeding of small L-catfish species such as L46, L174 or L280. But young, adolescent catfish and small to medium-sized crabs also like to hide here. Quickly and easily accepted by the animals, the young catfish seek shelter in it and can thus develop and grow very well. We use stoneware clay for the production of our pottery, which can be fired to a high temperature and contains a varying proportion of fireclay depending on the product. On the one hand, this makes our caves very stable and durable. On the other hand, the surfaces are never completely smooth, which provides an excellent basis for surface vegetation, which in turn is very much grazed by the catfish. This slightly rough surface of the cave also benefits the adhesive properties of most fish eggs
