Dried Cactus Pepe Cone Stems (10 Pack)
Did you know there are over 35 species of Cholla cactus each producing variations of what we now know in the hobby as Cholla wood? Cholla wood is in fact not actually wood but a byproduct of the Cacti dying.
These Cholla stems are hollow 3/4 of the way and can be hollowed right through with a small screwdriver or drill bit, they are a DIY aquascapers dream as one end is wider than the other and can be pieced together to make elaborate structures in the aquarium. The Cholla stems are fantastic for freshwater shrimp as an alternative food source, and encourage natural foraging and grazing.
