The basket suction-cups to the glass and holds blackworms, frozen bloodworms, or a thawed cube in one place, so fish come to the food instead of chasing it and your substrate stays clean. The slotted walls keep water moving through so nothing goes stale, and shy or newly imported fish learn a feeding spot fast. Best of all, the basket lifts out of its frame, leaving a floating-style feeding ring for flake and pellet.
