Trixie Watchbox with tunnel
Trixie Watchbox with tunnel – observe animals without disturbing themWith this Watchbox with tunnel, you can create an exciting retreat and observation spot right by the cage glass. Your small pets can retreat safely whilst you observe their behaviour calmly and with minimal stress.Key benefitsAllows close-up observation without having to reach into the enclosureSupports natural behaviour: hiding, exploring, running throughProvides variety and additional structure in the habitatUntreated wood has a natural look and is suitable for small animal enclosuresTechnical specificationsDimensions: 36 × 17 cmMaterial: Wood (untreated)Installation/placement: on the cage paneSuitable animal species: e.g. mice, hamstersThe Watchbox with tunnel is a practical add-on for small animal enclosures if you want to offer your pets more structure whilst keeping a close eye on them. Placing it against the cage glass creates an exciting area that acts as a sheltered retreat from the inside – whilst allowing a clear view of the animal from the outside. This is particularly helpful if you want to get to know the natural behaviour of your mice or hamsters better: when are they active, how do they explore new areas, and which routes do they prefer?The integrated tunnel encourages running through, hiding and short rest breaks. Such features promote daily activity because the enclosure is not just an ‘open space’ but offers different zones. For many small animals, this is exactly what matters: they feel more at ease when they can retreat from time to time and have several places to run and hide. At the same time, the Watchbox ensures that you can observe your animals without startling them or disrupting their routine.The Watchbox is crafted from untreated wood, visually aligning with naturalistic enclosures and being well-suited to small animal habitats. Additionally, the product has been certified by an independent specialist body for animal-friendly husbandry and animal welfare—a plus if you want to ensure safety and appropriate use when setting up your enclosure.Whether as an additional tunnel area, a quiet retreat or a viewing window into your small pet’s daily life: this Watchbox brings variety to your pets’ home and makes observing them together particularly exciting.Zoo Roco tip: Position the Watchbox so that the tunnel does not end directly beneath a drinking bottle or in an area with a lot of bedding dust. Many small animals prefer to use such observation spots if they also have a small bedding or hay corner nearby. Important: Check regularly that the mounting is secure and that no gaps have formed where little paws could get stuck.

Rotala rotundifolia 'Green
Rotala Rotundifolia 'Green' Rotala Rotundifolia 'Green' (Round-leaved Rotala) is a mid-ground plant. It is characterized by fast growth and moderate light requirements. The color is usually light green.Difficulty of growing: easy Light requirements: medium CO₂ requirements: not necessary Height of mature plant: 50-60 cm Growth: fast Temperature: 20-28°C Placement in aquarium: third level Origin: South Asia, Southeast Asia Cup diameter 6 cm The natural range of the round-leaved Rotalas (Rotala rotundifolia) is South, Southeast and East Asia. It has been spread by humans to Australia, the United States and Brazil, among other places. She is thus already almost a globetrotter.Rotala rotundifolia 'Green' is very similar to Rotala rotundifolia, but its leaves remain bright green even in bright light. This plant is characterized by its fast growth and its tendency to spread profusely, especially when regularly pruned. It tolerates medium light levels, but the higher the light, the more intense the plant's growth and colors. If left to grow freely, it reaches a length of 30-60 cm, cutting off access to light to the lower parts, where it begins to lose its leaves. Under favorable conditions, if left uncontrolled, it can dominate an entire tank, especially if it is a tank with a small capacity. Once it reaches the surface of the water, it begins to float on it. It does not need additional carbon dioxide fertilization unless you want to accelerate its growth even more. It is tolerant of pH and water hardness, although like most plants, it cannot tolerate extremes. It tolerates temperatures between 20 and 28 °C, but thrives better in the upper end of this range. It can grow in both an active and a poor substrate, but in this case it is advisable to fertilize under the roots. In well-lit, CO2-fertilized aquariums, it may require additional fertilization with macronutrients due to its rapid growth. Otherwise, it will lose its color and the leaves will become smaller. Rotala rotundifolia is propagated in the aquarium by cutting off stem pieces and placing them in a selected spot in the substrate. When transplanted to a new tank, it will need some time to acclimate and grow faster.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance into the substrate.
