The Half Coconut with Java Moss is a natural coconut shell half covered with live Java moss, creating a simple shelter and planted feature in one. The open-topped half-shell form provides cover for fish and shrimp while the live moss covering gives it a naturalistic appearance that suits planted aquariums, shrimp tanks, and community set-ups equally well.Java moss is one of the easiest aquarium plants available. It grows in low to medium light without CO2 injection and tolerates a wide range of water conditions. The moss will slowly spread and increase its coverage over the coconut surface over time with no special care required. Shrimp are particularly attracted to it for both grazing and shelter.The moss is pre-established on the coconut so no further attachment is needed — simply rinse and place. The natural coconut settles to the bottom of the tank without weighting. It may release some tannins initially, which is natural and harmless. Suitable for aquariums of 20 litres and above and particularly popular in shrimp and breeding tanks.
