Large Coco Palm Flowers (3 Pack)

These large, woody Coco Flower Pods are a long-time favourite at Castle Dawn Aquatics. Naturally eye-catching and highly functional, they bring structure, realism, and shelter to blackwater aquarium aquascapes. Their layered form creates excellent hiding spaces for fish and invertebrates while adding an authentic forest-floor appearance to biotope and botanical method aquariums.

Coco Flower Pods are exceptionally durable and last a long time underwater, slowly integrating into the aquarium ecosystem. Their fibrous surface encourages biofilm growth, making them especially beneficial for freshwater shrimp, plecos, and other bottom-dwelling species that graze continuously throughout the day.

All Castle Dawn Aquatics botanicals are organically sourced and naturally sun-dried without the use of chemicals or ethanol.
