IceCap Acrylic Bottle Dosing & Test Kit Caddy (IC-BB10)
The IceCap Bottle Caddy (SKU: IC-BB10) is an authentic, high-utility organizational station distributed by CoralVue to clean up messy aquarium testing centers and under-stand chemical storage zones. Regular water testing is critical for tracking parameters like alkalinity, calcium, and nitrates, but the resulting collection of small testing bottles, dropper vials, and Hanna Checker liquid reagents usually ends up rolling around loose in under-cabinet utility bins. If a bottle tip leaks or flips upside down, aggressive chemicals can warp wooden stands, stain shelves, or spill into open sumps. The IC-BB10 resolves this issue by anchoring your essential liquid testing line into a structured, upright, and highly mobile presentation rack.
Constructed from a premium blend of durable, non-corrosive cast acrylic panels, the caddy provides ten standalone 37mm diameter storage nodes. Out of the box, these ports are tailored to lock standard testing bottles in place. To ensure maximum compatibility with smaller testing suites, the kit includes four 25.5mm precision-reducing rings that immediately adapt individual slots to fit thin glass droppers or mini medication bottles. Anchored by an integrated, comfortable top handle, the caddy serves as a portable lab station. You can grab your entire testing array with one hand, bring it directly over your workspace to perform your water analysis, and slide the complete kit back into your cabinet out of sight when finished.
Key Features
Prevents Expensive Chemical Spills: Keeps open chemical reagent bottles standing perfectly upright, minimizing the risk of expensive livestock medications or dyes spilling on your carpets or clothes.
Corrosion-Proof Structural Design: Completely metal-free construction guarantees the caddy will never develop rust, freeze its joints, or corrode when exposed to high-salinity reef room environments.
Saves Lab Prep Time: Grouping your daily testing regimen into a singular tray stops you from wasting time searching through dark cabinets for misplaced colorimeter reagents or dropper caps.
(Note: This accessory item includes one standalone acrylic caddy frame and four 25.5mm reduction sleeves. Liquid testing chemicals, plastic syringes, and glass testing vials are sold under separate product categories).

- Unbox your IceCap Bottle Caddy and wipe the acrylic panels clean with a damp microfiber towel to clear away any static packaging dust.
- Separate your aquarium testing line. Place your wider bottles (up to 37mm wide, like standard Hanna colorimeter liquid bottles or supplement containers) directly into the open circular ports.
- For smaller, slender glass dropper vials or mini medication bottles, press the included 25.5mm reducing sleeves into selected slots to create a tighter fit.
- Arrange your testing sequence logically from left to right across the tray to simplify your testing workflow.
- Lift the caddy by the center handle to safely move your complete chemical array from your dark storage cabinet to your tank rim or desk workspace during testing hours.
- Clean the frame as needed by running it under warm tap water to flush away dried testing residues or salt crusts, and dry it thoroughly before replacing it under your tank.
Pro TIps:
- Dedicate the Adapted Slots to High-Frequency Reagents Like Hanna Checkers. If you use Hanna Checker Colorimeters for your daily alkalinity or phosphate tracking, insert the 25.5mm adapter rings into the front row of the caddy. The narrow liquid reagent dropper bottles fit perfectly inside these reduced sleeves, keeping them right at your fingertips. You can use the wider unadapted back slots to hold your larger water treatments or secondary test kits, creating a streamlined, multi-tier testing station.
- Never Wipe the Acrylic Frame with Harsh Industrial Glass Cleaners. To keep the clear and black acrylic panels looking pristine, avoid spraying the caddy with aggressive household cleaning agents like Windex or any alcohol-based solvents. Harsh chemicals will break down the acrylic's molecular bonds, causing the smooth, polished corners to develop fine cracks and look cloudy. Stick to warm tap water and a soft microfiber cloth to wipe away dried chemical drips or salt crust safely.
- Use a Permanent Marker to Label Slots and Keep Your Workflow Consistent. To speed up your weekly maintenance routine, place small adhesive labels or clear tape beneath each chamber slot. Mark them by parameter (such as Alk, Ca, Mg, NO3, PO4). By always returning each bottle to its identical home port, you can scan the tray instantly before a testing session to make sure no caps are leaking and no vital reagents are missing from your fish room.
