Witch hazel

Product description

Hexennuts are a natural addition that gives the aquarium a more natural look while also serving as hiding places for shrimp, fry and other small aquarium inhabitants. Over time, a biofilm forms on the surface, which shrimp like to feed on.

Hexennuts can also contribute with natural tannins that create a more natural aquatic environment and are especially appreciated in shrimp aquariums and biotope aquariums.

Advantages:

  • Natural decoration with a unique shape

  • Perfect hiding place for shrimp and fry

  • Promotes growth of biofilm on which shrimp graze

  • Can release natural tannins into the water

  • Suitable for both shrimp and pet aquariums

As the product is a natural material, size, shape and appearance vary between different specimens.

How do I prepare Hexennuss before adding it?

Rinse thoroughly with clean water and remove loose material. Natural items may be soaked and checked more closely; never use soap or cleaning agents.

Is Hexennuss safe for shrimp and fish?

Position it securely and check sharp edges, tight openings and loose parts. Animals should be able to use hides without becoming trapped.

Can Hexennuss affect water values?

Natural materials may release tannins or minerals, with effects varying by product. Follow the description and test the water when keeping sensitive species.

How do I clean Hexennuss?

Brush or gently rinse in removed aquarium water when needed. Some biofilm is natural and often provides food for shrimp and snails.
