Casuarina Cones are great addition to any shrimp tank. They provide a media for biofilm to grow and release tannin overtime which contains beneficial properties. They also provide small hiding spaces for shrimplets to seek refuge. These cones breakdown slower compared to other cones such as Birch and Alder cones and are generally larger.
aquaLife Casuarina cones provide tannins, lower pH, have anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties, enhance coloration and increase spawning behavior. The tannins released from these pieces create a more natural environment for Bettas, shrimp and other fish. Casuraina cones contain humic acids and tannins which are known to have antibacterial properties, naturally lower pH and create blackwater conditions in the aquarium. aquaLife Casuarina Cones are suitable for all soft-water fish including betta, discus, tetras, angelfish, and killifish.
Recommended application: Add 1-2 small cones per gallon.
Add directly to aquarium or pre-soak for faster sinking. Replace when tissue is decomposed or consumed.
