Chatelet REEFSHAPE Aquarium Corner Tube Viewing Tunnel Fish Shrimp Loaches Hideout for Aquariums Unique Underground Tunnel Made in

(FYI: some of my photos are flash enhanced) I definitely & happily recommend these cave enhancements for your aquarium, if you are looking to add "territory" to your aqua-landscape without added clutter. I have been very pleased with these so far! After shopping around the internet for some sort of sub-level space adding structure for my 45-tall tank, I settled on trying these "caves." I like how these unique add-ons have enhanced my enjoyment of watching my fish. They are a nice aesthetic enhancement that has proven to be quite the attention-getter / conversation starter for my guests stopping over and noticing my tank. The crew putting in my new heating system (known for their efficient in-and-out approach to jobs they have done for me in the past) found themselves taking a good 15-20 look at my setup! I was assured that time was "off the clock!" My full-bodied Bristol-nosed Pleco and Farlowela (stick catfish) species typically max out at around 6 to 7 inches, and they can navigate these caves with ease. Not only do these structures provide essential "defendable territory" for them as they assert their claim on tank real estate, but they also keep your tank looking neat without overcrowding it with decor. The smooth curves of these caves make it easy for them to enter or exit, especially if one decides to assert dominance in an already occupied cave. The 90-degree types I tried did not work well at all in this aspect. I was concerned that the sharper edges at the entrances might have been a safety issue. However, after over a month of use, I haven’t noticed any injuries being caused to my little tenants. Putting two of these caves in my tank - one in each front corner - has allowed my fish to feel securely hidden, reducing stress and preventing them from panicking every time I approach the tank to observe them. Even my Panda Corydoras, from infant to fully grown, appreciate these caves. They may be a bit more skittish, but the added sense of security encourages them to explore comfortably and not run off as soon as I close in to take a look. Read more

Bought this for a leopard gecko enclosure actually— buried it under his substrate, he LOVES it. Ended up using it as underground pooping place, helped keep tank cleaner and was easy to remove and wash when needed. 100% would buy again Read more

It came with rough edges I had to sand, but after installed my khuli loaches are always in it. It is hard to scoop an unsliced fish out though :/ Read more

I'm still in the process of scaping my tank. I am astonished at the bad reviews that people leave because they didn't think ahead, and thought they could just drop this into the tank and it would bury itself. Yes, you need to put this in BEFORE you put your aqua-soil, sand, or gravel in. That should be obvious. If you add it later, put rocks around it or something, but don't leave a bad review. This piece does exactly what is says it does. Read more

I mean the quality fits the price. It came warped and does not sit flush on the glass. I would not recommend. In this situation I think going a bit more expensive to get a better quality would be best. You don’t want to risk your fish. Read more

Bought for shrimp, but my dojo loaches think this hide is the best thing ever. It's large enough for an 8" loach to get safely into for a nap or a quick forage, and fit the corner of my 55gal tank beautifully. Build quality is excellent- there were no rough edges or machining marks. Read more

Love this, but make sure you get it in before you put in sand... cause I made a mess trying to get it in.... but it looks so cool, and fun to see my fishes dive in and pop out the other side. Read more

The media could not be loaded. My betta fish absolutely loves it! But I gave it four stars since it did arrive broken. Other than that it was great!😁 Read more
