Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which tank sizes is this turtle waste catcher box compatible with?
A: The turtle waste catcher box is designed for multi-tank compatibility. The S size (~11 × 6 × 3 cm) suits smaller aquariums and compact reptile tanks, while the L size (~18 × 10 × 4 cm) works well in larger setups. The suction cup mounting system adheres to flat glass or acrylic walls, making it versatile across most standard turtle tanks.
Q: How do I install and clean the turtle waste catcher?
A: Installation is completely tool-free. Simply press the suction cups firmly against the inner tank wall at your desired position and snap the catcher box in place. To clean, squeeze the suction cup tabs to release the unit, empty the collected waste, rinse the box under running water, and reattach. The whole process takes under a minute.
Q: Is the ABS plastic safe for aquarium use?
A: Yes. The catcher box is made from thickened ABS plastic, a material widely used in aquarium accessories for its durability and water resistance. It contains no high-concern chemicals and is designed to remain fully submerged for 3+ years without degrading.
Q: What minimum water depth is needed for the waste catcher to work properly?
A: The turtle waste catcher box requires a minimum water depth of 5 cm (approximately 1.96 inches) to function effectively. It works by intercepting waste as your turtle swims, so a sufficient water level ensures the channel system operates as intended.
