Cholla Wood

Cholla wood is a shrimp-keeping staple. As this natural cactus skeleton breaks down it grows a constant supply of biofilm — the number-one natural food for shrimp and shrimplets — while its hollow, porous structure gives them somewhere to graze, shelter and molt safely.

Why shrimp keepers love cholla wood

• Biofilm factory: a continuous food source that boosts shrimplet survival
• Safe shelter: hollow tubes are perfect hides for molting shrimp and babies
• Gentle tannins: releases beneficial tannins that lightly soften and condition water
• 100% natural: no additives — safe for shrimp, snails and fish

How to use

Rinse, then soak until it sinks (or weigh it down). Leave it in the tank long-term and let your shrimp graze as it slowly breaks down. Fast shipping across Canada.
