Canoinhas Pod 10–14 cm

Canoinhas Pod 10–14 cm – Natural hideout for shrimp and biotope aquariums

Canoinhas Pods are a natural decorative material from the Amazon that is perfect for shrimp aquariums and natural aquascapes. Although they are not yet as common in the aquarium hobby as some other botanicals, they are rich in tannins and other natural substances that can contribute to a more stable and natural aquatic environment.

The curved shape of the pod makes them an excellent natural hideout where shrimp and other small animals can feel safe. At the same time, the surface offers a place for biofilm and microorganisms to grow, which shrimp readily graze on.

When Canoinhas Pods are in the water, tannins are slowly released. These substances can help to slightly lower the pH, have a mild antibacterial effect, and give the water a light brown tint. This makes them particularly suitable for creating a more natural blackwater or biotope aquarium.
