Small Egg Tumbler by Ken’s
The purpose of an egg tumbler is to allow fresh water to circulate over cichlid eggs that have been separated from the parents.
A fresh supply of clean water allows the eggs to develop in an oxygen-rich environment where mould and fungus development is suppressed without the need for chemicals.
Egg tumblers are used frequently by breeders. The gentle rolling action caused by these tumblers can simulate the normal incubation of these fish.
Allows egg incubation in the same tank as fish are breeding in, providing identical water conditions during the incubation period.
Can be used on other non-adhesive fish eggs as well to help prevent fungus.
