Product description Transform your aquarium's ecosystem with these premium large alder cones, perfect for creating natural blackwater conditions favoured by many tropical fish and shrimp species. These natural botanicals release beneficial tannins and organic compounds that help lower pH levels, making them ideal for Betta fish, Plecos, and shrimp habitats. The cones gradually decompose, promoting the growth of biofilm - a valuable food source for young shrimp. Beyond their water-conditioning properties, these generously-sized cones serve as excellent hiding spots and territorial markers for aquarium inhabitants. The XXL version offers particularly large cones, though with reduced tannin release. These alder cones provide a natural alternative to chemical water treatments, helping maintain optimal water parameters while adding an authentic, botanical aesthetic to your aquarium setup. For best results, rinse before use and introduce gradually to monitor your aquarium's parameters. Directions Add sparingly until desired tannins have been achieved.
