Aquarium
Breeding caves mix colour are used in the breeding of various L-numbers (Harness catfish) and are ideal hiding places for other catfish, lobsters, shrimps, botias, kuhli, etc. Harness catfish (L-numbers) use breeding caves to deposit their eggs, often guarded by the male until they hatch.
For breeding L-numbers, we recommend using several shapes and sizes so that the L-numbers can choose which one they like best. Besides the mix colour breeding caves, we also have rectangular breeding caves, D-shape breeding caves, triangle breeding caves, XXL breeding caves, and catfish caves. L-numbers will choose a cave not much bigger than themselves, so take this into account when buying. Also, try to place the breeding caves in different flow directions, as the fish will appreciate this. If you don’t want to breed fish, breeding caves are also very fine hiding places for botias, large crayfish, large shrimps, catfish, etc.

Terrarium
The mix colour breeding cave can also be used as a shelter for various reptiles and amphibians such as frogs and geckos. As ceramic is porous, it absorbs moisture and heat, making it perfect for use as a moist or warm shelter.
Durable Ceramic
Our ceramics are 100% safe for humans, animals, and the environment. The breeding caves have a long lifespan and are handmade from ceramic. As the colour is ingrained in the clay, the colour will never disappear. This also makes the breeding caves easy to clean. Cleaning is easy with a soft sponge and warm water.
