Coconut Curl Fibers Large (90g Pack)

At Castle Dawn Aquatics, we love Coconut Fibre Curls – the Swiss Army knife of aquarium botanicals. These versatile, fibrous curls bring a touch of natural beauty and functionality to any blackwater aquascape. Their intricate structure makes them ideal shelters for shrimp, plecos, and small fish, while also serving as spawning grounds for Dwarf Cichlids and wild Betta species.

Coconut fibres release a high level of beneficial tannins and humic substances, giving your water a deep amber hue that mimics natural tropical streams. Their fibrous surface promotes biofilm, fungi, and microfauna growth, providing a natural food source for shrimp and fry.

Tannins Released: High

All our botanicals are organically sourced, free from harmful pesticides and naturally sun-dried without the use of chemicals.
