Catappa Bark tubes

Catappa Bark tubes are pieces of dried bark from the Sea Almond tree. Catappa bark has a positive influence on water quality. The rolled shape creates a safe hiding place for shrimps. Catappa Bark lasts a long time in an aquarium.

The use of Catappa leaves and bark has been known for years in fish farming. The leaves are given antifungal properties, which means fewer eggs are lost. In addition, it lowers the pH of the aquarium naturally. Tanins that are slowly released from the wood have a stress-reducing effect on fish and shrimp. It is obvious to use Catappa in every aquarium. Bettas, dwarf cichlids and catfish in particular will appreciate the presence of Catappa in the aquarium. Catappa Bark tubes are extra fun for shrimp. The inside provides protection and can be searched for food. The outside has a different texture on which a lot of food will also form.

The tanins that Catappa Bark tubes release can give the water a brown tint. Catappa Bark has a stronger effect than Catappa leaves. They also remain active in the aquarium for longer. Be careful when dosing Catappa Bark. After a month the main effect will have passed.

Keep dry. Unlimited shelf life. Ready to use immediately, but rinsing with hot water is recommended.

This is a 100% natural product. Discoloration of the water may occur initially. If more is added, the discoloration will be stronger. As a result, the pH-lowering effect is also stronger. They will float for a short time, then sink to the bottom. There is no need to take them out of the water.
