Chrysanthemum Dried Flower (6 Pack)
Chrysanthemum flowers make a beautiful and functional addition to blackwater aquariums, offering both visual interest and natural grazing opportunities for shrimp. Once submerged, these dried flowers gradually open in the water, creating an eye-catching focal point that adds texture and softness to any aquascape.
Highly favoured by Caridina and Neocaridina shrimp, Chrysanthemum flowers provide a natural foraging surface through biofilm development, keeping shrimp actively grazing throughout the day. With a low tannin release, they are ideal for aquarists looking to add botanicals without heavily darkening the water.
Tannins Released: Low
All our botanicals are organically sourced, free from harmful pesticides, and naturally sun-dried without the use of chemicals.
