Coconut Petals are natural aquarium botanicals, thin curled pieces of coconut husk that add texture and cover to shrimp tanks, nano aquariums, and blackwater or biotope setups.
As they steep, Coconut Petals release tannins that gently tint and soften the water, and they develop a fine biofilm over time that shrimp and fry love to graze on. Their curled, petal-like shape also creates plenty of nooks for shrimp and fry to shelter and forage in.
Before adding to your aquarium, rinse well and boil or steep for at least 5 minutes, then allow to cool to room temperature before placing in the tank.
As a natural product, size and appearance may vary. Adding botanicals to your aquarium can affect water parameters and release tannins into the water, so we recommend regular water testing when using botanicals.
