Calvus Cichlid Cave is a handcrafted ceramic breeding cave designed specifically for Altolamprologus calvus. It provides a safe and natural spawning environment for female Calvus cichlids, with smooth interiors to protect fish and promote successful breeding.
The Calvus Stone Caves come in two distinct sizes:
- Calvus Stone Cave S: 9 x 9 x 3.5cm
- Calvus Stone Cave M: 12 x 12 x 4cm
These caves are tailored for Calvus cichlids, Altolamprologus calvus, providing an ideal breeding environment. The female utilizes these caves during spawning, safeguarding eggs within unreachable hollows. Each cave boasts a unique, stone-like exterior, while the interior is smooth to prevent fish injuries, ensuring their safety and comfort.
Aquarium Integration
Handcrafted from white ceramic in our partner's studio in the Netherlands, the Calvus Caves seamlessly blend into aquarium environments, offering a natural aesthetic. Complement them with real wood to enhance the aquatic landscape, creating ample hiding spots to promote fish well-being.
Customization Options
Enhance your Calvus Caves by adorning them with various aquatic plants and mosses such as java moss or anubias. Secure these additions using aquarium glue or fishing line initially, allowing them to naturally intertwine with the caves over time. The porous ceramic structure not only facilitates plant attachment but also acts as a biological filter.
Sustainable Craftsmanship
Our commitment to sustainability extends to our 100% safe, eco-friendly ceramics. The color, integrated into the clay during baking, ensures longevity without fading, simplifying maintenance with easy cleaning using a soft sponge and warm water.
