With the large 68 cm wedge tank , you can now also breed larger danios and barbs easily and conveniently. The eggs are drawn directly into a secure chamber by the air lifter. These tanks are perfect if you want to set up a simple but highly successful breeding rack in your living room to breed various free-spawning ornamental fish. This is not a permanent holding tank that comes fully equipped. It is intended exclusively for breeding purposes and to increase the survival rate of young fish.
A wedge tank is used as a breeding tank for danios, barbs, and rasboras. After spawning, the fish's eggs are sucked into a secured area through a special wedge design, so that the breeding fish can no longer eat the eggs.
This tank is perfect for ornamental fish breeders. The eggs can be removed much more easily this way, and the number of young fish can be increased.
The aquarium is intended for use in the IKEA Kallax shelf. Before setting it up, check the exact dimensions, load-bearing capacity, and surface area of your specific shelf model. Also plan enough space for equipment, cables, and maintenance work.
The total load is calculated based on the fully equipped aquarium. Consider the tank, water, substrate, stones, and accessories. Neither Terra-Natur nor IKEA accepts any liability for the load-bearing capacity of the shelf. Protect the furniture from splashes and escaping water.
A wedge tank is used for breeding free-spawning danios, barbs, or rasboras. The ornamental fish are placed in the front area of the tank, and the optimally positioned flow washes the eggs into a protected section of the tank.
We recommend that you measure your shelf before ordering, as the design of the shelves has changed over the years, and this will ensure that it fits in the end.
The well-fed breeding fish are placed in the larger area. There should be moss or something similar on the bottom. After spawning, the eggs fall to the bottom and are drawn into a protected area by the flow and suction, where the parent fish can no longer eat them.

With the right selection of aquatic plants, you can also make small aquariums appear significantly larger. For small aquariums, we also recommend using finer plants. Rotala or Ludwigia species are suitable as stem plants for the background here. This prevents the tank from looking overcrowded. A larger-leaved eye-catcher is allowed to introduce a different leaf shape.
Small aquariums can be beautifully landscaped with a small rock formation and suitable small roots. They should be planted predominantly with fine-leaved plants such as compact Anubias, Cryptocorynes, or various mosses. Fine stem plants or needle leeks are also a good option.
Tall aquariums offer a major advantage in terms of overall design flexibility. Larger roots and broad-leaved aquatic plants such as Java fern can be used here. A classic Vallisneria spiralis comes into its own in the background, as does a Ludwigia. The foreground can be landscaped with Monte Carlo pearlwort, cryptocorynes, needle moss, dwarf sword plants or Staurogyne repens.
Shallow aquariums are ideal for recreating a great underwater stream. Fine sand and many round river stones of different sizes can be used to create a natural structure. At the same time, hardy, low-growing aquatic plants such as Cryptocoryne, dwarf sword plants, or Brazilian grass provide optimal planting for such shallow aquariums. When properly set up, these tanks are ideal for catfish and shrimp, which do not necessarily require height.
