The entrance is sized and angled so an \u003cem\u003eApistogramma\u003c\/em\u003e female can claim the interior, fan her eggs in privacy, and defend a single small doorway, which is exactly how these fish want to spawn. The natural clay color disappears into substrate and hardscape, and the dense ceramic sinks, stays put, and never affects water chemistry. It is just as popular with shell-dwelling and ram cichlids, small plecos, kuhli loaches, and any betta that wants a den.
