FOUR POSITION WATER BOTTLE MOUNTING
Flexable water bottle positions
Two standard OptiMICE® water bottles mount to the stainless steel feeder in the OptiRAT® cage. The bottles can easily be positioned in four different configurations depending on your needs. The higher position is ideal for standard rats and guinea pigs, placing the water aperture ~3.1" (80mm) above the cage floor. The lower position accommodates pups and is ~1.5" (39mm) above the cage floor.
