Aquarium

The round breeding caves are used in breeding various L-numbers (Armored Catfish), serving as ideal hiding spots for other catfish, crayfish, shrimp, loaches, etc. L-numbers use breeding caves to deposit their eggs, which are often guarded by the male until they hatch.

For breeding L-numbers, we recommend using multiple shapes and sizes so that the fish can choose the one they prefer. In addition to round caves, we also offer rectangular caves, D-shaped caves, triangular caves, XXL caves, catfish caves, and mix color caves. L-numbers tend to choose caves that are not much larger than themselves, so please consider this when making a purchase. Try placing the caves in different flow directions, as the fish will appreciate this. If you’re not breeding with fish, caves also serve as excellent hiding spots for loaches, large crayfish, large shrimp, catfish, etc.

L-Numbers 
  • The small round cave is suitable for small L-numbers up to 10cm, such as the Bristlenose Ancistrus, L002, L015, L046, L104, L129, L340, L400, L411, etc. The small caves are also suitable for juvenile L-numbers and small crayfish/shrimp.
  • The medium round cave is suitable for L-numbers up to 12cm, such as the L046, L102, L129, L136, L144, L181, L199, L201, L236, L260, L262, and L397. The L046 has been successfully bred by various breeders in our small and medium round caves. Additionally, they can be used as hiding spots for crayfish, shrimp, catfish, etc.
  • Our large round cave is suitable for breeding L-numbers up to 16cm, such as the L066, L070, L144, L201, L204, and L333. The round caves have repeatedly proven themselves in breeding very difficult-to-breed L-numbers. Additionally, they can be used as hiding spots for crayfish, shrimp, catfish, etc.
  • The XLarge round cave is suitable for L-numbers up to 18cm, such as the L070 and L264.
Terrarium

The round breeding caves can also be used as hiding spots for smaller reptiles and amphibians such as frogs and small geckos. Because ceramic is porous, it absorbs moisture and heat, making it perfect for use as a moist or warm hiding spot.

Durable Ceramic

Our ceramic is 100% safe for humans, animals, and the environment. The breeding caves have a long lifespan and are handmade from ceramic. Since the color is baked into the clay, it will never fade. This makes the caves easy to clean with a soft sponge and warm water.
