Key Features:
- Natural Source of Tannins: Cinnamon bark releases tannins into the water, helping to lower pH levels and create a natural, acidic environment beneficial for many freshwater species.
- Antibacterial and Antifungal Properties: Naturally occurring antibacterial and antifungal properties help maintain a cleaner aquarium environment and reduce the risk of infections.
- Promotes Natural Behavior: Offers a natural habitat enrichment, encouraging behaviors like hiding, foraging, and grazing, which help reduce stress and promote a more active lifestyle.
- Supports Molting and Breeding: The natural compounds in cinnamon bark support the molting process in shrimp and other invertebrates, as well as creating a favorable environment for breeding.
- Safe and Natural: Made from 100% natural cinnamon bark, free from harmful additives and chemicals, ensuring the safety of your pets.
Benefits:
- Perfect for Shrimp and Snails: Especially beneficial for Neocaridina, Caridina, Amano Shrimp, and various snail species, providing them with natural nutrition and habitat enrichment.
- Easy to Use: Simply place the prepared cinnamon bark pieces in your aquarium, allowing them to naturally sink and gradually release beneficial compounds into the water.
- Multi-Use: Suitable for daily supplementation, breeding tanks, and quarantine setups to provide additional health benefits and reduce stress.
Preparation and Usage Instructions:
- Preparation: Before adding cinnamon bark to your aquarium, it is recommended to boil the pieces for 5-10 minutes. Boiling helps remove any potential contaminants and softens the bark, allowing it to release beneficial tannins more effectively.
- Usage: After boiling, rinse the bark under cool water, then place 1-2 pieces of cinnamon bark per 40 liters (approximately 10 gallons) of water in your aquarium.
- Replacement: Replace the bark every 3-4 weeks or as it decomposes.
