The 50-pieces SunGrow Alder Cones do not just serve as an aquatic decor, but they release tannins and lower the pH level of your aquarium water. Different species thrive in different pH levels, so it is highly important to adjust the pH level according to your aquarium needs.
Since this is not a man-made product, DO NOT expect to receive it in exact and perfect shape and size. A slight variation can be observed. Their size ranges from 0.5" to 1". You will get 50 pieces in one pack, which is enough for even the big shrimp colonies.
The alder cones by SunGrow add a raw beauty to your fish tank. To accentuate the process of creating a tannin-rich environment, you may consider adding SunGrow's cholla wood and SunGrow catappa leaves. Depending on your pH requirements, you can use any 1 or a combination of these 3 elements. The quantity to be used varies according to the aquarium size and number of pets and the species that reside in a particular tank. Start with 1 cone per gallon and observe the pH effect to determine 'ideal' quantity.
These beautiful and beneficial SunGrow cones also make an ideal gift for people who share your aesthetic taste and passion for Aquatic life. An Alder Cone pack makes a unique and memorable gift for any aquarium owner.
SunGrow Tip: Always rinse before use, even after boiling or soaking to ensure they are clean.
- Alder Cone As Shrimp’s Stress Reliever --- Our cones when immersed in water change the aquarium watercolor. Consequently, the tinted or the tea-water helps in shedding and the cones serve as a food source for your freshwater crustaceans.
- Lower Ph Levels --- The pH value in an aquarium varies depending on factors such as water hardness, trace elements present, and oxygen levels. Use our practical 50-pack of cones to lower the pH levels.
- Perfect For Shrimps --- The value pack of cones creates an ideal aquatic living environment for tropical inhabitants such as shrimps.
- Look Amazing In Any Tank --- The SunGrow Alder Cones add a raw beauty to the aquarium. Like cones produced by evergreen trees, the alder cones have numerous woody “wings” and are shaped like a Christmas tree. Before placing the product in the aquarium, always rinse under the tap water. A "post-boil soak" in fresh water is a recommended step too.
- Size Varies Between Half An Inch To A Full Inch --- Since these alder cones are not man-made, the size of each one would be unique. The SunGrow Alder Cones range in size from around 0.5” up to a full 1” (1.25cm to 2.5cm). As you get 50 pieces in one pack, they are enough even for the big shrimp aquariums.
