Cholla Wood - 6-inch piece

from $4.00

Cholla wood is a versatile and beneficial addition to any planted shrimp tank. It enhances the aesthetics, provides valuable hiding spots, and contributes to a healthier ecosystem for your aquatic inhabitants.

Cholla wood is a fantastic addition to a freshwater aquarium with plants and shrimp, offering several benefits:  

Hiding Places: Its intricate branches and hollow spaces provide excellent hiding spots for shy shrimp, especially juveniles. This reduces stress and encourages natural behaviors.  

Natural Look: Cholla wood creates a beautiful, naturalistic appearance in the aquarium, mimicking the look of a natural stream or riverbed.

Biofilm Growth: The porous surface of cholla wood encourages the growth of beneficial biofilm, a natural food source for shrimp and other small invertebrates.  

Plant Attachment: You can easily attach mosses, Java Fern, Anubias, and other epiphytic plants to the branches, adding visual interest and creating a lush, natural environment.  

Water Chemistry: Cholla wood can slightly lower the pH of the water, making it more suitable for some species of shrimp and plants that prefer slightly acidic conditions.
