Product description:
Mini alder cones are a must-have for natural aquarium and bioactive tank enthusiasts.
Rich in tannins, they help replicate “blackwater” type water, closer to the natural habitats of many fish and invertebrate species.
By decomposing slowly, they release beneficial compounds that can help:
Soothe and reduce fish stress
Promote slightly amber, more natural water
Support microfauna and biofilms, highly appreciated by shrimp and small invertebrates
Provide small hiding spots and exploration areas for wildlife
Advantages of La Swamp mini alder cones:
100% natural, chemical-free
Ideal for freshwater aquariums, shrimp tanks, and paludariums
Mini size perfect for nano tanks and detailed decorations
Decompose gradually without polluting the water when used in reasonable quantities
Carefully selected product for pet stores and bioactive enthusiasts
Recommended use:
Add a few cones per 20–30 liters of water, then adjust according to the desired effect (water color, fish behavior).
Replace or replenish as needed when the cones are very degraded.
Lifespan:
The mini alder cones decompose over several weeks to a few months depending on the water parameters and the tank population. They can be left in place as long as they maintain a useful structure.
