Product details

Description

Approx. 10 cm long

Cholla Wood, also known as cactus wood or vuka wood, is the dried skeleton of the Cholla cactus from Mexico. This unique wood is a must-have for any shrimp lover: it's decorative, functional, and a natural snack for your animals.

Thanks to its open honeycomb structure, Cholla Wood offers numerous hiding places where shrimp feel safe and can find food.

What does Cholla Wood do in your aquarium?

Cholla Wood slowly releases substances that contribute to a healthy ecosystem. Simultaneously, it creates a biofilm on the surface – a real treat for shrimp and other invertebrates. Because it breaks down slowly, your animals can enjoy it for weeks or even months.

Advantages

  • 🌡 Natural skeleton of the Cholla cactus
  • 🦐 Ideal hiding and grazing area for shrimps and invertebrates
  • πŸ’§ Slowly releases beneficial substances
  • ✨ Tough, natural look
  • ♻️ Slowly biodegradable, sustainable use

Specifications

Type Dried cactus skeleton
Size approx. 10 cm long

Use & Maintenance

Rinse the wood thoroughly before use. Cholla Wood floats initially, but will sink naturally after a few days. Once at the bottom, it becomes a natural eye-catcher and a healthy addition to your shrimp tank.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Cholla Wood safe for all aquarium inhabitants?

Yes, completely safe. Shrimp and invertebrates especially benefit from the biofilm and hiding places.

How long does Cholla Wood last?

Depending on your aquarium conditions, it often remains intact for months before slowly breaking down.

Why does Cholla Wood float in the beginning?

Because the cactus skeleton holds air, it sinks naturally after a few days of soaking in water.
